Fowl Fortune on the Chicken Road Circuit
The "Chicken Road" casino slot is a peculiar creation that blends elements of rural life with an adventurous road trip. This five-reel game, developed by unknown provider, invites players to join in on a fun-filled journey down the titular Chicken Road, complete with quirky Chicken Road characters and exciting features.
Gameplay Overview
Before we dive into the details, it’s essential to understand how "Chicken Road" works. Players are dealt 10 paylines across five reels, each populated by various symbols representing farm animals, food items, and other rural-themed icons. The goal is simple: spin the reels and line up matching combinations of these symbols to win. Each winning combination triggers a payout based on the symbol’s value.
Theme and Design
The theme of "Chicken Road" revolves around the idea of a road trip through picturesque countryside. As players navigate the game, they’ll encounter various farm animals, including chickens (naturally), cows, pigs, sheep, and horses. These creatures appear as both low-paying symbols and high-paying bonus icons.
Gameplay takes place on a sunny country road lined with trees, buildings, and other scenery. The background features rolling hills, farmland, and the occasional farmhouse in the distance. Music plays subtly throughout, contributing to an inviting atmosphere that invites players to join in on the fun.
Symbols
"Chicken Road’s" symbols include both low-paying icons (such as a cow’s head or a chicken egg) and high-paying bonus symbols (featuring individual animals like cows, pigs, sheep, horses, and chickens). Winning combinations can occur horizontally (left-to-right), although some symbols offer stacked wins for additional chances at success. The payout table indicates which symbols award the highest sums.
In addition to the standard animal characters, "Chicken Road" features a few bonus symbols that add unique mechanics:
- Chickens: These are basic high-paying symbols and the game’s main feature.
- Farming truck: Serves as both an additional high-paying symbol (when landing two or more) and a wild replacement for most other symbols.
- Chicken road sign: Appears only in specific combinations, this icon sets off bonus features.
Payouts
Winning payout amounts are awarded based on the number of matching symbols in combination with their individual values. Payout multipliers increase with every additional symbol matched (1x-5x per five symbols).
Chickens offer a base pay of up to 10 times for three, four, or five appearances, respectively. The Chicken Road Sign offers increased payouts and sets off various bonus rounds.
Wilds
One wild in "Chicken Road" can replace any other symbol (except the chicken road sign). Wilds appear randomly across reels 2-5 during normal games when no bonuses are active. However, this game does not have an entirely dedicated bonus or a second chance for finding more than one win by using one single wild. This is a relatively unusual design choice and something we would like to see in the future.
Scatters
There’s also one specific symbol which appears as scatter icon only: the "Chicken Road Sign". Scattered Chicken road signs anywhere on reels 1-3, starting from left to right trigger "Bonus Wins", free spins or more interestingly – two different bonus rounds at a time.
- The bonus round provides a randomly selected multiplier value between x2 – 15x and allows you to bet for real money during this bonus.
- In the second round known as "Farmhouse Fortune" we get exactly 12 (twelve) free spins with locked multiplier which is used once after each spin ends.
