The Dog House Megaways 1000 launched on 13 July 2026. It is the latest entry in Pragmatic Play's Dog House series and the most powerful version yet. The original Dog House from 2019 had wild multipliers of 2x and 3x. This one goes up to 1,000x. When multiple wilds land in the same win, their multipliers multiply together rather than add. Two 1,000x wilds on the same win is 1,000,000x before anything else. The max win is capped at 25,000x.
Same dogs, same Megaways framework. Everything else is turned up.

The Theme
The suburban setting from the originals is gone. The Dog House Megaways 1000 is set in the countryside, rolling fields, a wooden kennel, open sky. The four dog characters from the series return. Pay symbols are card royals, bones, collars, and the four dogs. Six matching dogs on a payline pays 1.5x to 7.5x the bet. Six matching low-pay symbols pays 0.5x to 1.5x.
How It Works
The Megaways engine means each of the six reels shows a random number of symbols on every spin, between two and seven. The total ways to win changes every spin and reaches 117,649 when all reels are at seven rows. Wins pay left to right when matching symbols appear on adjacent reels.
Wild Multipliers
Wilds appear on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 only. Every wild carries a random multiplier from this range: 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 25x, 100x, or 1,000x.
When a wild contributes to a win, its multiplier applies to the win. When two or more wilds contribute to the same win, their multiplier values multiply together first before being applied. A 25x and a 10x wild on the same win produces a 250x multiplier on the total. A 1,000x and a 100x wild on the same win produces a 100,000x multiplier, hence the 25,000x cap.
Bonus Game
Three to six scatter symbols trigger the bonus game. Scatter count determines starting spin total up to 20 free spins. Before the feature starts, you choose one of two modes.
Mode 1: Sticky Wilds
Every wild that lands during the free spins stays on the grid for the rest of the feature. Wilds accumulate across spins. By the later spins of a good Sticky Wilds run, the grid can have multiple wilds locked in place, each carrying their multiplier value and multiplying together on every winning combination they both contribute to.
Mode 2: Random Wilds
Up to six wilds can land on every free spin. They do not stay between spins. Instead of building up, you get a fresh set of wilds each spin, with the chance of landing several in a single round.
Both modes are valid choices. Sticky Wilds builds toward higher multiplier combinations late in the round. Random Wilds gives you repeated high-wild-count spins throughout.
There are no retriggers during the bonus game.
Super Bonus Levels
Super Scatter symbols can appear in the triggering combination alongside regular scatters. Different combinations unlock two enhanced bonus levels above the standard feature.
Super Bonus 1
Both Sticky Wilds and Random Wilds are available. The wilds carry higher multiplier values on average compared to the standard bonus. Same mode choice applies before the feature starts.
Super Bonus 2
All wilds that land during Super Bonus 2 are sticky throughout. There is no mode choice, all wilds from every spin accumulate on the grid for the full duration of the feature. This is the most powerful configuration in The Dog House Megaways 1000 and the mode where the 25,000x ceiling is most reachable.
Bonus Buy Options
| Option | Cost | What You Get |
|---|---|---|
| Feature Buy (Special Bet) | 20x stake | Enhanced scatter frequency in the base game |
| Feature Buy (Special Bet) | 500x stake | Higher chance of landing super scatters |
| Free Spins Buy | 100x stake | Direct entry into the standard bonus game |
| Super Free Spins 1 | 500x stake | Direct entry into Super Bonus 1 |
| Super Free Spins 2 | 2,500x stake | Direct entry into Super Bonus 2 with all-sticky wilds |
| Ante Bet | 3x per spin | Increased scatter frequency in base game |
Note: the Feature Buy options (Special Bets) block access to the free spins while they are active. They operate separately from the bonus game.
At €0.20 minimum the 100x Free Spins buy costs €20, the 500x Super Free Spins 1 costs €100, and the 2,500x Super Free Spins 2 costs €500. The Ante Bet at 3x takes the effective bet to €0.60 per spin at minimum while increasing scatter frequency
RTP and Volatility
Top RTP is 96.50%, strong for Pragmatic Play and confirmed from the data sheet. Three settings available: 96.50%, 95.50%, 94.50%. Check which version your casino runs.
Medium volatility is the classification. Wins land roughly one in every 4.2 spins in the base game. That is an active session cadence compared to high-volatility alternatives. The big swings happen when multiple wilds multiply together in the bonus, particularly in Sticky Wilds mode or Super Bonus 2 where they accumulate across spins.
Max Win
25,000x your bet. At €0.20 that is €5,000. At €240 max bet it is €6,000,000.
The 25,000x cap is the highest in the Dog House series. The compounding multiplication mechanic means the raw mathematical potential far exceeds 25,000x, but the cap stops payouts there. Super Bonus 2 with all-sticky wilds accumulating 1,000x multipliers across multiple spins is the configuration that approaches it.
How It Compares to the Dog House Series
The original Dog House (2019): suburban setting, 2x-3x multiplier wilds, fixed 5-reel grid.
The Dog House Megaways (2020): Megaways engine, higher multiplier range, same two bonus modes.
The Dog House Megaways 1000 (2026): multiplier ceiling raised from previous maximum to 1,000x, two super bonus levels added, 25,000x max win. The Megaways grid and two mode choice remain. The countryside setting replaces the suburbs.
Each entry has raised the ceiling while keeping the familiar structure. Players who know either previous version will find The Dog House Megaways 1000 immediately familiar with more powerful outcomes.
Our Verdict
The Dog House Megaways 1000 does what Pragmatic Play's 1000 series is built to do: take an established formula and push the multiplier system further. The 1,000x wild cap, combined with the compounding multiplication rule, gives every bonus round the potential for outcomes the earlier versions could not reach.
Medium volatility, 96.50% RTP, and a session-active base game make it accessible for regular play rather than just bonus buy sessions. The Super Bonus 2 buy at 2,500x is the most direct route to the highest outcomes, but the standard 100x buy and natural triggers both give you access to the core mechanic.
If you like the Dog House series, this is the best it has been.
