Theme and Design
Chicken Road is a 5-reel, 4-row video slot game that combines an exciting Asian theme with stunning graphics and engaging sound effects. The game takes players on a journey through rural China’s countryside, where they will encounter various symbols inspired by traditional Chinese culture. As you Chicken Road spin the reels, vibrant birds of all shapes and sizes fly across the screen, creating a visually appealing atmosphere.
The slot machine is designed to resemble an ancient wooden temple gate, with intricate carvings adorning its facade. The overall design of Chicken Road effectively immerses players in the game’s theme, transporting them to a world where winning combinations come easily.
Symbols and Payouts
Chicken Road boasts 25 fixed paylines, providing multiple opportunities for players to score wins with each spin. The symbols used throughout the game are designed to fit seamlessly within the Asian theme:
- Low-paying Symbols: Playing cards (10-A) in golden colors serve as the slot’s low-paying symbols.
- Mid-paying Symbols: Various animals such as turtles, frogs, and chickens feature prominently on the reels.
- High-paying Symbols: Lucky 8 and lucky coins offer higher payouts than their mid-paying counterparts.
Wins are triggered by landing three or more matching symbols in a single payline. Paytables outline each winning combination’s value, ranging from low-paying 10-20 coin rewards to the highest-payout chickens offering up to 5 times the initial bet.
Wilds
The slot features two special wild symbols:
- Flock Wild Symbol: This bird-shaped icon will substitute for any other symbol to complete winning combinations. The Flock Wild can appear stacked on reels, creating multiple winning possibilities.
- Free Spin Chicken Wild: When this symbol appears during the free spins feature (explained later), it expands across a 3×3 grid and acts as an additional wild.
Scatters
A golden egg serves as the game’s scatter icon. Players receive up to three Free Spins Bonus rounds when three or more gold eggs appear in any position on the reels, without activating other bonus features.
Bonus Features: The Road Showdown Bonus Feature & Multiplier Boost
When six or more identical chicken symbols land during free spins or regular gameplay, a 5-level Roadshowdown feature is triggered. Each level presents an exciting new challenge:
- Level One: Multiply your initial bet with each matching symbol.
- Level Two: Freeze wilds to maintain their positions until the next spin.
- Level Three: Collect multiple chicken symbols while maintaining previous multipliers and frozen wilds.
- Level Four: Get 5 additional free spins plus higher multiplier values on the remaining levels.
Free Spins
To activate this round, players must land three or more scatter icons (golden eggs). A variable number of Free Spins is awarded based on how many scatters triggered the feature. These rounds offer a higher win potential than regular gameplay due to increased payouts for wilds and combinations:
- Basic Bonus: 15 free spins with an unknown multiplier value.
- Expanded Wild Feature Bonus: A maximum of three extra stacked chickens appear during free spin, expanding into sticky wild symbols.
- Super Stacked Chicken Free Spins Bonus: Four chicken symbols will be super-stacked on a reel for up to two rounds.
