The Chicken Road slot machine is a classic online game developed by a reputable software provider in the iGaming industry. This review aims to provide an in-depth look at all aspects of the game, from its theme and design to its payouts, bonus features, and overall player experience.
Theme and Design
The Chicken Road slot is set on a rural road surrounded by lush greenery and rolling hills. The game’s background is a serene landscape with a clear blue sky above. The reels are situated at the center Chicken Road of the screen, while the controls and balance display are positioned below.
The symbols used in the game are all related to country life, including chickens, roosters, cows, pigs, horses, and farmhouses. Each symbol has its own unique design, with intricate details that add a touch of realism to the game. The higher-paying symbols feature 3D graphics, while the lower-paying ones have more simple designs.
The game’s theme music is upbeat and lively, creating an energetic atmosphere that complements the countryside setting. Overall, the design and visuals of Chicken Road are well-executed, making it a visually appealing slot machine.
Symbols
As mentioned earlier, the symbols used in Chicken Road are all related to country life. The following table provides an overview of each symbol’s values and payout amounts:
Symbol Values (x) Payouts Rooster 9, 10, J, Q, K 5-50 coins Chicken A, E, I 20-100 coins Cow Horse 40-150 coins Pig Farmhouse 60-200 coins
The game features a mix of classic card symbols (9-A) and country-themed icons. The rooster is the most valuable standard symbol, paying out up to 50 coins for five matches.
Payouts
Chicken Road’s payouts are calculated using a traditional slot machine structure. All winning combinations must appear from left to right on adjacent reels. The payouts listed above assume a single bet size of one coin per line and the maximum number of paylines (25) in play.
In terms of payout multipliers, Chicken Road follows the standard formula: multiplying the base value by the x multiplier shown for each symbol.
Wilds
There are no specific wild symbols in Chicken Road. Instead, any chicken or rooster appears as a 5x multiplier when part of a winning combination.
No Substituting Wilds
Unlike some other slots, the game does not include substituting wilds that can fill gaps between regular wins.
Scatters and Bonus Features
Chicken Road features two bonus symbols: a Scatter (represented by the Farmhouse icon) and a Chicken Free Spin symbol.
The scatter pays out for three or more matches anywhere on the reels, while triggering 10 free spins with all payline prizes doubled. The chicken free spin symbol serves as both an additional winning combination and triggers five consecutive free spins if appearing in view during base game play or activated via completion of regular games.
Scatters
In Chicken Road, any combination of scatters (minimum three) pays out without regards to the bet size per line. Scatter combinations are also not limited by the 25-line maximum – as long as one is triggered from any reel and it appears that there would be a matchable winning sequence.
Free Spins
Chicken Road has two main free spin features: regular Free Spins mode activated upon getting three or more scatters anywhere in view on its five reels (minimum required three to activate; subsequent matches add additional rounds), and Chicken Power – the chicken appearing as both a high-paying winning combination piece and, when seen during non-winning play or base games completing sequence(s) initiated prior entry into respective game modes).
Regular Free Spins: During the 10 free spins that result from getting at least three Scatters in view on its five reels (regardless of pay line position), all wins achieved will double those originally won. This rule applies without limits across any winning combination made during activated sessions.
Chicken Power Bonus Round:
1) When entering Chicken Road’s "Free Spins" round, if that bonus mode is initiated via a player getting the chicken anywhere on its visible game reel lines in view at activation – or simply while the games normal sequence of rounds completes normally prior entry to Free Spins (i.e., it occurs naturally without direct action by any spin button) – then said "Chicken Power" can be considered ‘engaged’.
2) The next set number of free spins is now automatically reduced from 10 down, and Chicken power engaged (no other specific triggering condition than initial activation).
