Tales of Dr Dolittle Slot

Based on the famous fictional character who could ‘talk to the animals’, Tales of Dr Dolittle is a 5 reel, 25 payline slot game from Quickspin. Superbly designed as usual, it comes with plenty of extras include streak respins, multiplier wilds that can boost payouts by up to 5x as well as a free spins round. Play on all devices from between 25p and £100 per spin.



Quickspin has a reputation for creating beautiful looking games and Tales of Dr Dolittle is no exception. Behind the reels you’ll see a seaside cove, Dr Dolittle’s mansion and an airship. Joining the A to 10 royal values are a dog in a bow tie, a horse wearing a pair of glasses and a parrot sporting a rather dashing monocle. The top standard symbol is Dr Dolittle himself who’ll get you double your total stake if you land 5 on a payline. As we’ve already mentioned, there’s a good range of extras on offer here:

Respin feature – this is triggered following every winning spin. The successful symbols are held and the reels spin again. The respins keep on coming as long as a new matching symbol or wild joins the winning cluster.

Multiplier Wild feature – land a multiplier wild in a winning combination and the payout gets a multiplier boost. The more wilds, the bigger the boost:

  • 1 wild = 2x multiplier
  • 2 wilds = 3x multiplier
  • 3 wilds = 4x multiplier
  • 4+ wilds = 5x multiplier

Free Spins Bonus feature - this round is triggered by landing 3 or more of the bonus scatter on the same spin. You’ll then receive 10 free spins. On each free spin, you’re guaranteed to land a multiplier wild meaning you can benefit from a multiplier up to 5x on each of them.

The visuals in Tales of Dr Dolittle are excellent and there’s a jaunty backing track playing as you spin. The gameplay impresses too, delivering plenty of action. The streak respins come along regularly and the wild multipliers can provide a timely boost here and there. The Free Spins Bonus feature combines all the features but there’s only 250 times your stake to be won from each free spin (with the 5x multiplier).

We can’t say we were fans of the movie incarnations of Dr Dolittle (neither Rex Harrison nor Eddie Murphy). This slot version wasn’t much better even though it combines high spec design with some enjoyable extras. I would rather play other Quickspin titles like Divine Dreams or Ticket to the Stars which offer bigger top payouts.
