3 Top Dogs

The 3 Top Dogs online pokie relies on dog-specific coin effects and Hold & Win triggers that link into its Free Spins feature. Below are the main mechanics that guide the gameplay.

This feature activates when three Scatters land anywhere on the reels, either starting the round from the base game or extending it when Free Spins are already active. During the mode, any 2x Wild that forms part of a winning payline doubles that return, and multiple of these symbols compound their doubling effects. The round can be retriggered with additional Scatters, and Hold & Win remains available throughout.

As established, each dog brings a signature coin into play, and these coins can shift the outcome of a spin the moment they land. Baxter’s Blue Coin absorbs the value of every visible coin on the reels, including mystery coins and other special collectors.



Mobi’s Green Coin transforms into a mystery jackpot coin, giving a shot at landing one of the jackpot prizes. Ronnie’s Red Coin targets a 2x2 area, filling empty positions with coins and doubling the values of any positions already occupied. These abilities can appear together in a single round, creating layered effects as they interact.

When six or more coins land at once, the Hold & Win feature triggers with three respins. Any new coin that appears resets the counter, and each dog’s special coin keeps its unique behaviour during the feature, allowing collecting to continue while mystery upgrades or value boosts apply whenever their respective coins land.

If the reels fall short of the six-coin requirement, the game may randomly activate a Coin Shower, dropping extra coins onto the board to push the bonus into play.

3 Top Dogs uses a simple layout that will feel familiar to most pokie games. The bet amount sits along the bottom bar beside the main controls, and the stack-of-coins icon next to the spin button opens the bet-selection panel where you can choose your preferred stake.

The large spin button is positioned on the right side of the screen and starts the round when pressed. Along the bottom left, the trophy icon opens the paytable so you can check symbol values. Beside it, the speaker icon controls the sound, while the 9-dot menu provides access to additional settings and detailed game information.

Released in May 2025, 3 Top Dogs brings a bright, cartoon-like look to the screen, featuring a clean blue-sky background and a bold red-and-gold frame that holds the reels. Baxter, Ronnie, and Mobi sit perched above the grid, each highlighting their own special ability. The jackpot tiers (Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega) appear to the left of the reels.

The soundtrack follows the same cheerful tone, using light effects and crisp win sounds that match the lively animations on the reels.
