Theme and Design
The Chicken Road slot machine is set against a serene landscape featuring a winding road through the countryside. Various farm-related elements adorn the reels, such as chickens, ducks, pigs, and sheep, while barns and silos serve as backdrop props. The overall design exudes a tranquil atmosphere reminiscent of rural life.
Symbols
The game’s symbols are divided into three categories: standard paytable icons (9 to Ace), animal-themed symbols (chicken, duck, pig, sheep, rooster), and special features like scatters, wilds, and bonus trigger. Players can expect the following payouts for successful combinations:
- Standard 9-10 paytable icons
- Wins are awarded from left to right or right to left, starting with a minimum of three matching symbols.
- Payout amounts vary based on the symbol’s value (e.g., 3x for 9s and Aces, while higher-value symbols like ducks offer larger rewards).
- Animal-themed symbols
- These icons pay out in accordance with their corresponding values:
- Chicken: x1.5 to 50 coins depending on the number of matching birds.
- Duck: x2 to 100 coins for three or more quacking friends lined up.
- Pig and Sheep: payout between x3.5 to 200 coins when five or more members join in the fun.
- Rooster: yields a maximum of 1,000 coins by crowing loudly (literally).
- These icons pay out in accordance with their corresponding values:
- Scatters
- The Egg icon serves as the scatter symbol; landing three, four, or five eggs on a single spin activates various bonus features.
Wilds
While not explicitly stated in the game’s documentation, observations suggest that some symbols function as wildcards. In situations where an animal (poultry) is part of an eligible winning combination and its corresponding high-value egg isn’t available to complete it without using another animal in place – at least one would become Wild symbol when no specific instance occurs.
Payouts
The payout table displays various combinations, with minimum bet requirements applied per line. For standard paytable icons (9-10), the reward structure follows:
Matched Symbols Coins Awarded 3 x1 4 x5 5 x25
To calculate wins, we multiply coins awarded by number of matching symbols. A minimum bet starts at one unit per payline and can increase to a maximum; as stated on official documentation.
Bonus Features
Several exciting features combine for an enhanced gameplay experience:
- Egg Scatters : These trigger various bonus rounds or rewards when three, four, or five appear simultaneously anywhere across the reels.
- Free Spins
- During these bonus sessions, active lines remain unchanged; only additional free spins contribute to final payouts upon completion of a required win threshold per line occurrence that triggered activation – with multiple iterations possible:
- 5+ scatters grant 15 Free Spins
- Re-trigger after landing on an area at least one ‘chicken’ icon, giving +10.
- During these bonus sessions, active lines remain unchanged; only additional free spins contribute to final payouts upon completion of a required win threshold per line occurrence that triggered activation – with multiple iterations possible:
- Bonus Features Activated by Scatters : With the Egg Scatter, you can participate in special rounds as specified above.
Free Spins
The gameplay revolves around two types of free spins:
- Scatter-free Spins : This type rewards players based on how often certain animal combinations land over a predetermined period without relying entirely upon scatter icons’ involvement within playthroughs—each bonus can contain numerous re-sets or extended by hitting specific patterns during active intervals – which also generates added rewards through wild card substitutions used elsewhere inside wins.
- Egg-scatter Free Spins : With multiple iterations, this free spin round starts anew every time the required combination is hit and grants up to ten bonus spins.
RTP
As per game data provided on official websites (or documentation): The theoretical return rate ranges between a low percentage value when placing all bets at maximum potential stakes (< 80%); higher wagers offering better house edges; or even less-than-average percentages offered during certain promotions/special offers.
