Chicken Road is a casino slot game that offers an intriguing blend of adventure, humor, and potential rewards. Set in an unorthodox environment, players are transported to a scenic route lined with farm animals, as they attempt to reach their destination – presumably, Chicken Road itself.
Theme
The theme of the game revolves around birds on the move, aiming for a specific destination Chicken Road called Chicken Road. The colorful visuals and animations transport players to a lively countryside setting where chickens roam freely. A catchy soundtrack enhances the experience by adding an air of excitement and anticipation. However, it’s worth noting that while the theme is unique in its own right, it doesn’t stray far from traditional farm-themed slots.
Design
Upon entering the game, one notices a prominent green-blue sky with fluffy white clouds above. In the distance lies Chicken Road itself – presumably a prized location for these birds on the move. The scenery provides an immersive backdrop as players navigate through various reels and bonus features. A large farmhouse serves as the backdrop at times when certain rewards are granted.
Symbols
As one would expect, symbols associated with chickens and farm-related items make up most of the game’s character set. Players can find Chickens, Horses, Sheep, Pigs, Eggs, Feathers, Wheat Crops, and various food sources, in addition to classic slot symbol designs: 9-Ace playing cards.
Payouts
While a full payout table is available within the game or upon requesting information from customer support, players should be aware of basic return rates. Common winning combinations range between one-tenth (low-value items) and four times the stake for mid-paying icons like Chickens. Rare occurrences, such as those triggered by Scatters, can result in thousands to tens-of-thousands dollars paid out.
Wilds
As one might expect from a themed slot of this nature, chicken-themed Wild symbols do exist and appear only on reels two through five (excluding the central position). By substituting all regular symbols when present in combination, these Wilds grant access to potential winning combinations. However, they lack any real power compared to what the Scatter delivers.
Scatters
In Chicken Road, Scattered Chickens hold greater value than other icons available within this game’s reels (0-1). Players are required at least one such symbol landing across three consecutive positions from leftmost to right (3x). As these symbols trigger a unique feature – described below in ‘Bonus Features’, the Scatters themselves carry an impressive reward compared to standard winning combinations.
Bonus Features
In addition to standard gameplay, Chicken Road features various bonus aspects accessible through designated scatter triggers. Key amongst them:
-
Free Spins : Upon collecting three or more scattered Chickens and having these combine on a valid spin, 12 free spins will be given with an active Multiplier applied in each spin – starting at +2 and growing to max of tenfold on certain rolls. A generous return awaits those who play optimally.
-
Bonus Feature : Chicken Road has several other secondary options hidden within the base gameplay:
- The Hatching Egg Bonus.
- The Flying Fowl Bonuses, an accumulation mode offering potential combinations from various collected animals with rewards (from 10x up to a max value).
RTP and Volatility
With no specific RTP rates mentioned publicly by suppliers or accessible through any official release documentation from either the software developer and/or operator. A general assessment needs to be formed about volatility levels – suggesting average (mid-to-high variance) in line with a range observed across popular slots of similar popularity within online casinos.
Betting Range
Stakes available cover players’ options ranging between five cents (0.05 USD/EUR or equivalent currency denomination for player account region), up until 5 dollars per spin, making it easily accessible even to those who wish lower stakes and budgeted gambling sessions.
Max Win
Given all bonus features may come together in optimal situations when using a high-stakes strategy focusing on maximum potential multipliers triggered by both scatters plus the wild’s standard presence, an estimated upper limit is set for Chicken Road at 2,000 times base stake or approximately $10K @ max bet if playing with five dollars ($5.00) per spin.
