Play Douguie's Delights for Free

The design for this game really focuses its theme, from fast food and sports references to the symbolic images that abound throughout every aspect of this time. What Douguie's Delights provides is a flag waving, apple pie eating visual experience. The design probably won't appeal to players outside the US, as it does lay the nationalism on a bit thick, but it's done in a jaunty, carnival type way more reminiscent of a fourth of July parade than the bombastic rhetoric of some politicians.

Douguie's Delights as a game is a 5-reel, 9-payline affair that arrives direct from Top Game, a notable up and coming online casino software developer. It is loaded with features, boasting not only a bonus game, but scatters for free spins and of course a wild too. The maximum payout is $50,000 dollars, which alone would be a great reason to give this one a second look. The controls are fairly standard, with auto play offered, but nothing in the way of a progressive jackpot on show.

The Stars and Stripes is the wild that will substitute for any other regular symbol, but not the scatter or bonus game feature symbols. What this wild doesn't do is award any money for a combination or just of itself, which some players may find a little disappointing. The Scatter symbol is a bald eagle and is yet another nod to the patriotic American theme of this title. The free spins however feel a bit anti-climatic though, as you only get 5 of them as opposed to the 10 or more that most games offer.

Sadly, the bonus game in Douguie's Delights feels much the same way as the free spins, as you are awarded between 4 and 20 bonus points, which is considerably less than most games of this type. The symbol for the bonus games is the famous Statue of Liberty. You will need to line lady liberty up on the three middle reels (2nd,3rd, and 4th) to activate this feature. For the most part, the betting options are fairly standard for a Top Game title, with one coin per each of the 9 paylines, allowing for a bet from $0.01 up to a maximum of $5. This means total bets top out at $45. The big draw of this game for most will be the top jackpot of $50,000 dollars on a maximum line bet.

Its over the top patriotism will be a bit of a turn off to some, but generally I found Douguie's Delights to be a vastly entertaining experience. Like a trip to the local fair, with everyone enjoying themselves and having a good time just being American. The main draw for those not familiar or simply not inspired by the overt symbolism will find comfort in the pursuit of $50,000. The gameplay itself is well suited to a casual player who is looking for a bit more challenge without jumping in at the deep end.

Our only real complaint is the way they seemed to scrimp on the bonus points and free games offered by their features. Overall, we would highly recommend this game to anyone who isn't put off by the theme. It is simple, raucous fun much like the common American pastimes that it draws its inspiration from so heavily. We would say to those who are undecided try the free practice version and see if you think it's worth the risk, as there is certainly a lot to love about Douguie's Delights.
