Chicken Road is a casino slot game developed by Push Gaming, a UK-based online gaming software provider. Released in 2020, the game has quickly gained popularity among players due to its unique theme and engaging gameplay Chicken Road features.
Theme
The game’s theme revolves around the concept of rural roads, where players are immersed in a world of country-style charm and nostalgia. The graphics and sound effects work together seamlessly to create an immersive atmosphere that is both calming and exciting at the same time. Players will find themselves wandering down a winding road lined with trees, houses, and fields, while also encountering various farm animals, including chickens.
Design
The game’s design is a key aspect of its overall appeal. The slot features 5 reels, with each reel displaying 4 symbols at any given time. This setup provides an enormous number of possible winning combinations, thanks to the inclusion of wilds and scatters that will be discussed later in this review.
Symbols
The game’s symbols are carefully designed to fit within its rural theme. They include:
- Standard playing card symbols (9-A), which come with varying payout values
- Chicken-themed high-paying symbols, including a rooster, a chick, and a hen
- A wild symbol, represented by the word "Chicken Road" written in bold letters
- Scatters are represented by a silo icon
The game’s payouts vary depending on the combination of symbols. For example, landing 5 identical playing card symbols will award players with a modest win, while winning combinations featuring high-paying chicken-themed symbols can lead to more substantial rewards.
Payouts
Payouts in Chicken Road are determined by the paytable, which outlines potential winnings for each combination of symbols. Players should note that some winning combinations may only be possible if specific conditions or features (such as wilds and free spins) are triggered.
The maximum win available is 10,000 times a player’s stake on any single spin. This significant payout possibility can make the game appealing to high-rollers looking for substantial winnings.
Wilds
One of Chicken Road’s most exciting features is its wild symbol. When the "Chicken Road" word appears anywhere within a winning combination, it will substitute for all other symbols except scatters and bonus triggers. This greatly increases the potential number of wins during each spin.
What sets this game apart from many others in terms of wilds is that landing multiple instances can create extended combinations. For example, if 5 or more wilds appear on a single line, the player will receive an instant win based on their stake value multiplied by 1000 times for any four-of-a-kind and five-of-a-kind wins.
