Chicken Road
The theme of "Chicken Road" is an unorthodox yet intriguing one, delving into a world where chickens have taken over the roads, creating a chaotic yet vibrant atmosphere that players can immerse themselves in. The slot game’s design effectively captures this Chicken Road spirit with colorful and detailed graphics. From the lush greenery to the scattered cars on the road, each aspect is designed with meticulous care.
At first glance, it appears as though the game might be leaning towards being simplistic, given its relatively straightforward theme. However, upon further inspection, there are several key elements that elevate "Chicken Road" from an otherwise common slot machine design. The incorporation of various cartoon-style chicken characters adds a layer of depth to the game’s visuals.
The symbols in "Chicken Road" also follow a unique design approach. Each symbol is carefully crafted with distinct animations and visual effects. Players will encounter four different types of chickens, each representing varying degrees of payout. Beyond the basic numbers 9-Ace, players can expect to find high-value icons including two bonus chicken characters – Professor Hatcher "Hatchy", a wise-cracking lab-coated rooster, and Henrietta the Haunted Hen.
Payout Structure
The payouts in "Chicken Road" are divided across both regular wins as well as specific combinations with the chickens’ symbols. The basic symbol payout follows the standard pattern: low-value number 9-10 has the lowest winning potential (0.8 coins), while Aces offer slightly better returns at a rate of approximately 1 coin.
The chicken symbols bring payouts ranging from around 2 to approximately 5 times your total stake, with higher wins possible through bonus features or when certain combinations occur during free spins rounds.
Wilds and Scatters
A game wouldn’t be complete without incorporating special features. Wild icons in "Chicken Road" are represented by an image of a truck driving down the road. Although not as eye-catching as some other wild symbols, this choice ensures that it blends seamlessly into the design while still fulfilling its function.
On the other hand, the scatter symbol is much more distinctive: Professor Hatcher’s hat stands out immediately due to bright red feathers and glasses perched atop a head that resembles those from popular cartoon franchises. Scatters also serve as a multiplier for wilds.
Bonus Features
Now, let’s examine "Chicken Road" in its entirety by considering each available bonus feature:
1. Free Spins : Awarded through scatters (with 10 free rounds provided by three scattered Hatcher hats), the gameplay doesn’t change much – there are no unique conditions applied during this part.
2. Multiplier Bonus : Payout for completing specific chicken combinations with at least two wild symbols on any winning combination increases to up to x9.
