FluxPlays verdict
Our verdict
For a max-win hunter, yes. For a short-session player, no. In the free spins every wild sticks, each extra BONUS symbol raises all their multipliers, and wilds on one line multiply each other, so one spin can pay the round. The drawback is the waiting: in our bought round, twelve of thirteen spins paid almost nothing before the last one paid the round.
Who it suits
Play this if…
- Max-win hunters: wild multipliers grow through the round and multiply along a line, so the cap is reachable in one spin
- Bonus buyers: the buy carries a higher RTP than the base game
- You like a base game with its own feature: Mystery Respins can turn a whole board into one dog
Skip this if…
- Short-session players: most base spins are line wins of a few cents, with Mystery Respins the exception
- Players who want steady free spins: a round can stay quiet until its wilds share a line
- You want many ways to win: 15 fixed lines are all there is

Top Dawg$: Full Review
In Top Dawg$, often written Top Dawgs, every wild in the free spins sticks, and each extra BONUS symbol raises the multiplier on all of them at once. Wilds on the same line multiply each other, which is where Relax Gaming's June 2021 dog-gang slot finds its ceiling. It suits patient bonus players, and the base game has its own lift in Mystery Respins.

How Top Dawg$ works
Fifteen fixed lines run across five reels of three rows, paying from the leftmost reel. The bulldog and the wild share the top of a short paytable, and the four dogs pay far more than the letters:
| Symbol, pays at $1 | 5 | 4 | 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bulldog, wild | $30 | $6 | $3 |
| Poodle | $25 | $5 | $2.50 |
| Bloodhound | $20 | $4 | $2 |
| Puppy in a beanie | $15 | $3 | $1.50 |
| A, K, Q, J | $2 | $1 | $0.50 |
How the parts connect:
- A mystery symbol on reel 5 starts Mystery Respins in the base game.
- Three to five BONUS symbols start the free spins.
- In the free spins every wild sticks, and each extra BONUS symbol adds a spin and a step to every wild's multiplier.
- Wilds on one line multiply each other, so the line is what pays.
The free spins carry the game. Mystery Respins are what keeps the base game from being line wins alone.
How Mystery Respins work
A mystery symbol landing on reel 5 starts the respins. Each new mystery adds another respin, and when a respin brings none, every mystery on the board turns into the same symbol at once. A board half full of mysteries can become one dog across all five reels.
Our spin 73 shows the best case from our session. Six respins piled up mysteries, they revealed as poodles, and the spin paid $65.00.
Base spin 73 settled after six respins: the mysteries revealed as poodles, for 65.00. FluxPlays demo test, 1 November 2026.
Base spin 1: the same feature revealing as Q, one of the four letters at the bottom of the paytable. FluxPlays demo test, 1 November 2026.
Free spins: how they trigger and how the wilds multiply
Three BONUS symbols give 8 free spins, four give 10 and five give 12. From then on every wild that lands stays where it is until the round ends.
Each extra BONUS symbol that lands in the round adds one spin and raises every wild's multiplier by one, up to 7x a wild. On a line, the multipliers of the wilds on it multiply each other. Five wilds at the top step on one line make 16,807x, the largest line multiplier the game allows.
In practice the round is slow until wilds share a line. Ours, from the buy, paid almost nothing for twelve spins, then the last spin paid $80.00. Most of that came from one line where the wilds combined to x32.
Our bought spin landed four BONUS symbols for 10 free spins. FluxPlays demo test, 1 November 2026.
Our bought round ended at 81.00, with sticky wilds at x3 and x4 behind the result. FluxPlays demo test, 1 November 2026.
Buying the free spins
The buy costs 90x the bet in the base game and guarantees at least three BONUS symbols. Its RTP is 96.71%, higher than the base game's, so the shortcut also carries the better return on paper.
RTP, volatility and max win
The base game's RTP is 96.10%. That is the highest setting, and an operator may choose a lower one. The game states no volatility label, and review sites rate it High.
No round pays more than 25,000x your stake, and a free spins round that gets there stops. A single line of top-step wilds goes far past it, so in practice the cap, not the multiplier, sets the ceiling.

Tested on Relax Gaming's public fun-mode client (rules version 2.0.7, 12/06/2024) on 1 November 2026, in FUN practice credits read as dollars, from a 5,000.00 balance. The demo opened at 2.00 and was lowered to 1.00, the bet used for every round. A small script in the page pressed the spin button for each spin, quick spin on, no autoplay. Mystery Respins ran on spins 1, 8, 73 and 86. Every round was checked against the game server: 100 base spins and one full-price buy, $190.00 spent and $190.00 back, ending at 5,000.00 on the server and on screen. The window changed from landscape to portrait at spin 74, so the captures come in both shapes.
One Mystery Respin made our base session. Spin 73 paid more than half of everything the hundred spins returned, and the three other respin runs paid small amounts.
The bought round showed how the free spins work. Four sticky wilds built up during the round, but the first twelve spins paid almost nothing. The last spin put them on paying lines and paid nearly the whole round.
BONUS symbols never reached three on their own, so natural free spins and wilds above x4 are described from the help pages. One session of this length tells you how the game plays, not what it returns.
Is Top Dawg$ worth playing?
For a max-win hunter, yes. For a short-session player, no. The free spins have a real build: every extra BONUS symbol makes every sticky wild stronger, and wilds on a line multiply. The cost is patience, since a round can do very little until two or more wilds share a line.
Pick The Dog House if you want sticky wilds in free spins at Medium volatility. Pick Top Dawg$ if you want wild multipliers that keep growing during the round and multiply along a line, toward a much higher cap.
Buy the round once in the demo and watch where the sticky wilds land. Whether they share a line decides the round more than how many there are.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do the wild multipliers work in Top Dawg$?+
In the free spins every wild sticks, and each extra BONUS symbol adds a spin and raises every wild's multiplier by one, to a top step of seven. Wilds on the same line multiply each other, so five wilds at the top step give the largest line multiplier in the game. In our bought round, one line of wilds combined to x32.
How do you trigger free spins in Top Dawg$?+
Land three, four or five BONUS symbols for 8, 10 or 12 free spins, or buy the round. In the base game, Mystery Respins are the other feature: a mystery on reel 5 starts them, and every mystery on the board reveals as one symbol at the end.
Can you buy the bonus in Top Dawg$, and what does it cost?+
Yes, for 90x the bet, and the bought spin always lands at least three BONUS symbols. The buy has an RTP of 96.71%, above the base game's 96.10%, so the shortcut also carries the better return in the help pages.
What is the max win in Top Dawg$, and how is it reached?+
It is 25,000x the bet, and a free spins round that gets there stops at that amount. Wild multipliers on one line can reach 16,807x on their own, so a single line of high wilds paying a good symbol is enough to hit the cap.
