With the immense popularity of pugs, not only as a breed of pug but also as an image on designer clothing, it’s surprising that more slot developers have not leapt at the opportunity to use the undersized pooches as a theme for slot games.
This is not a mistake that Lightning Box are willing to make, although they have arguably tried to do too much at once with their newest slot, Astro Pug.
About the slot
With five reels and 1,296 ways to win, Astro Pug is playable from 50p to £250 a spin on all compatible desktop, mobile, and tablet devices.
This is a modern twist on the more than overused Chinese theme, with the new and the vintage combined to create an interesting design, if a busy one.
A traditional Chinese building stands in the background, while modern interpretations of classic images of animals from Chinese culture adorn the reels.
The pug plays the wild, while the costumed person is the most lucrative symbol here, although it will only pay out 2.5x your bet for five on a payline.
This low amount gets better when the features come into play though.
Gameplay
The Bone Multiplier Feature is one to look out for here, with the bonus symbol on the reels adding a 2x, 3x, or 4x multiplier to wins depending on the number of symbols on the reels.
The middle reel is a 16-symbol Reelfacta, with an outer ring that if it houses five or more scatters, will trigger the Free Spins feature.
Here, you’ll get between three and 12 free spins, with extra modifiers moving around the Reelfacta throughout.
It may sound complicated, but it doesn’t take long to get used to the innovative mechanics of this slot, which plays a lot better than it looks!
