How many Dynamite symbols are required for an instant prize?

At least three Dynamite symbols must appear anywhere on the grid. Larger quantities progressively increase the instant prize up to 100 times the bet for ten Dynamite symbols.

What can the Plunger symbol award?

The Plunger can randomly award one of the Dynamite prize ladder values or directly trigger the Bronze, Silver or Gold version of the Bonus Game.

How is the standard Bonus Game triggered?

Scatter symbols must land on reels one, three and five during the same spin. This starts the feature at the Prospecting level with three respins.

What happens whenever a new Money symbol lands during the bonus?

The Money symbol locks into position, the respin counter resets to three and all Money symbols move down by one row.

What happens when a Money symbol moves beyond the bottom of the grid?

Its value is collected into the win meter and Doug can throw the symbol back onto the reels.

What can happen when Doug throws a Money symbol back?

The symbol can land in an empty position or combine with an existing Money symbol. It can also receive an additional multiplier of 2, 3 or 4 times.

What is the difference between Bronze, Silver and Gold?

Bronze uses Money values from 25 to 50 times and a 2 times feature multiplier. Silver uses values from 75 to 125 times and a 3 times multiplier. Gold uses values from 150 to 250 times and a 5 times multiplier.

Can the bonus upgrade more than once?

No. Once Prospecting upgrades to Bronze, Silver or Gold, no further level can be unlocked during that feature.

Does Dynamite Diggin Doug have a Wild symbol?

No. The game does not use a conventional Wild symbol. Its special gameplay revolves around Dynamite symbols, the Plunger, Scatters and the Money respin mechanics.

Dynamite Diggin Doug

Name: Dynamite Diggin Doug
Author: Pragmatic Play

Dynamite Diggin Doug trades fishing rods for explosives and sends Reel Kingdom's cheerful adventurer underground in search of gold. Distributed through Pragmatic Play, the game uses five reels, three rows and ten fixed paylines, surrounding Doug with mining carts, lanterns, shovels and plenty of dynamite. Regular spins already contain instant dynamite prizes, but the real attraction is a specialised respin feature where Money symbols move down the grid, get collected and can be thrown back with stronger values. With high volatility, an RTP of up to 96.52 percent and a maximum win of 3,000 times the bet, the slot places most of its potential inside one unusual mining bonus. Regular wins require at least three matching paying symbols on consecutive reels from left to right, beginning with reel one. Card ranks from Ten through Ace form the lower section of the paytable, while mining equipment provides the premium prizes. The strongest symbols include lanterns, tools and the mine cart, with the best regular combination awarding up to 100 times the bet. Some of the premium symbols can already produce prizes from only two matching positions. Dynamite Diggin Doug does not use a conventional Wild symbol. Dynamite symbols provide instant prizes during the base game. Landing three awards 0.5 times the bet, while larger quantities progressively increase the reward. Four pay 1 times, five pay 1.5 times, six pay 5 times, seven pay 10 times, eight pay 20 times, nine pay 50 times and ten award 100 times the bet. These prizes are based on the total number of Dynamite symbols visible anywhere on the grid rather than on their alignment across a payline. The Plunger can randomly appear in the centre position of the grid and immediately award one of the values shown on the Dynamite prize ladder. It can also land one of the three premium feature results, Bronze, Silver or Gold. When this happens, the corresponding version of the Bonus Game begins directly rather than starting from the standard Prospecting level. Three Scatter symbols on reels one, three and five also trigger the Bonus Game, beginning at the Prospecting level with three respins. The regular symbols disappear and the feature uses only blank spaces and Money symbols. Dynamite Money symbols can display values of 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8 or 10 times the bet. New Money symbols lock into position and reset the remaining respin counter to three. Every time a new Money symbol lands, all Money symbols on the grid move down by one row. Any symbol pushed beyond the bottom of the reels is collected and added to the win meter. Doug then throws collected Dynamite symbols back onto the grid. A returning symbol can occupy an empty position or land on top of an existing Money symbol, combining their values. Returned symbols can also receive an additional multiplier of 2, 3 or 4 times, giving the feature the possibility of building stronger prizes as the sequence continues. Prospecting is the standard starting level when the bonus is triggered through the three Scatters. During this mode, repeatedly landing new Dynamite symbols can unlock one of three upgraded levels. Successfully landing at least one new Dynamite Money symbol on five consecutive respins randomly upgrades the feature to Bronze, Silver or Gold. Once an upgraded level has been selected, no further level changes are possible during that feature. Bronze introduces its own higher value Money symbols ranging from 25 to 50 times the bet and applies a 2 times multiplier to the final feature win. Silver increases the available Money symbol values to between 75 and 125 times and applies a 3 times multiplier. Gold is the strongest level, introducing Money symbols worth between 150 and 250 times the bet together with a 5 times multiplier on the final bonus result. The feature continues until no respins remain. At that point, every Money symbol still visible on the grid is collected along with the values already stored in the win meter. If Bronze, Silver or Gold is active, the corresponding 2, 3 or 5 times multiplier is applied according to the feature rules. The continuous downward movement gives Dynamite Diggin Doug a very different rhythm from a conventional Hold and Spin feature, since symbols are constantly being collected and recycled rather than simply remaining fixed until the end. An Ante Bet option increases the regular stake by 50 percent and improves the probability of triggering the Bonus Game. Where Feature Buy is permitted, direct access to the bonus costs 100 times the selected bet and operates at an RTP of approximately 96.53 percent. Dynamite Diggin Doug succeeds because it gives a familiar Money respin concept a genuinely distinctive movement mechanic. Watching prizes descend, disappear into Doug's collection and return with stronger values makes the bonus feel active throughout, while the Bronze, Silver and Gold levels provide clear upgrades worth chasing.
