Chicken Run

Posted on

The Chicken Run slots game is a 5-reel, 20-payline online casino game developed by Microgaming, one of the leading software providers in the industry. The game is based on the popular animated film of the same name and brings to life the lovable characters and exciting storyline that made it such a hit with audiences worldwide.

Theme and Design

The theme of Chicken Run slots is centered around the farm where the story takes place, complete with fields of wheat, barns, and other rustic elements. The graphics are colorful and detailed, creating an immersive atmosphere for Chicken Run demo players. The game’s background music complements the theme perfectly, adding to the overall entertainment value.

Symbols

The symbols in Chicken Run slots are divided into two categories: high-value and low-value. The high-value symbols include Ginger (the clever heroine of the film), Rocky (Ginger’s rugged love interest), Mrs. Tweedy (the farm owner’s wife and main antagonist), and a suitcase symbol that represents freedom for the chickens.

The low-value symbols consist of playing card values from 9 to Ace, as well as a set of animal-themed icons including hens, geese, ducks, turkeys, and roosters. The game also features several special symbols that play important roles in winning combinations and triggering bonus rounds.

Payouts

The payout table in Chicken Run slots shows the maximum possible winnings for each symbol combination, ranging from 2x to 50,000x the bet per line. Players can view the payouts by accessing the paytable through a menu option within the game itself or by consulting the user manual provided on Microgaming’s website.

WILDS AND SCATTERS

The wild symbol in Chicken Run slots is represented by Ginger herself, and she has several interesting features to contribute to winnings:

  • She substitutes for any high-value symbol to help create winning combinations.
  • When three, four, or five Ginger symbols appear on a payline consecutively from left to right, the player triggers 10 free spins during which all wins are tripled.

On the other hand, Mrs. Tweedy serves as both Wild and Scatter:

  • She acts similarly to the wild symbol but with an added bonus: whenever she forms part of a winning combination, it triggers a re-spin feature allowing players one more chance at landing another win.
  • When three or four Scattered Mrs. Tweedies appear anywhere on the reels without the need for them to be aligned in any particular order from left to right within those reels (just as long as they don’t have a minimum consecutive row of two), 10 re-spins are triggered during which all wins are tripled.

BONUS FEATURES

One of Chicken Run’s most engaging features is its "Bonus Trail" mode:

  • Whenever three Scattered Mrs. Tweedies or Wild Ginger appear anywhere on the reels without being lined up, they trigger a random award between 1 and 20 times the triggering bet per line.
  • For each consecutive appearance that earns such rewards at least two, players progress closer to winning the top reward of £5000.

The "Free Spins" feature grants extra spins when the game lands specific combinations on its reels. With these bonus rounds active for up-to ten rounds and during which Ginger pays out triple (1×3), more chances at higher payouts exist than ever before.

RTP AND VOLATILITY

Chicken Run Slots features a medium to high volatility, offering both consistent but relatively low-payout wins as well as less frequent large wins. Microgaming estimated the theoretical Return To Player rate to be 96%, which means players stand about even chances of winning between $0-$1 for each dollar played on any given bet.
