The logo 'Spike's Nite Out' is the Wild symbol, paying a marvelous 15,000x the line bet for 5 of them. Woof! Woof! That means 'get them!' The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols, but doesn't double any wins with it, doesn't become stacked or expanded, and is therefore a dumb Wild symbol nonetheless. 'Doggy Time' is the Scatter symbol, 5 of which pays the usual 100x total bet amount, and getting 3 or more adjacent Scatter symbols trigger the Bonus Feature game. As for the other symbols, the Banker pays 5000x, the Chihuahua Waitress pays 3000x, combination of Banker + Waitress pays 2500x, and the others pay from 2000x to 60x, all per line bet for 5 of each kind. Wow, a very nice very good paytable, for once.
In the Bonus Feature game, there are 6 dogs at the poker table, and you get up to 6 picks to win cash prizes. A card with an 'Extra Pick' awards one more pick. A card with only a cash prize amount ends the game. The maximum possible win is 6750 coins, or 450x the total bet amount, which is not bad at all for a bonus game. Other bonus games tend to pay within the range of 20x to 50x the total bet amount, but there's always the Free Spins game to get additional wins from. Not in Spike's Nite Out. There aren't any free spins in the game, which is a sore point for me. The best possible win has to come from getting 5 Wild symbols, for a 1000x total bet win, and that's about it.
