Chicken Run is a 5-reel online slots game developed by Microgaming, a renowned software provider in the iGaming industry. The game takes players on an exciting adventure with its farm animal theme and entertaining gameplay features.
Theme and Design The game’s design reflects the Chicken Run film of the same name, which was released in 2000 and became a classic comedy. Players are immersed in the world of Gallipot Farm, where they must help Ginger, a clever chicken, escape from the clutches of the villainous Farmer Fowler. The background image features a beautiful farm landscape with rolling hills and a barn, while the reels themselves display cartoon-style characters inspired by the film.
Symbols The game’s symbols are divided into two categories: low-paying and high-paying icons. The low-paying icons include Ace (A), King (K), Queen (Q), Jack (J), Ten (10) as well as five farm-themed images of a chicken, egg, wheat, rooster, and farmer.
Payouts The payouts for the standard symbols are decent but not spectacular. For example, getting three to five consecutive Ace’s on an active payline yields 50-1,000 times the initial stake per line. On the other hand, collecting three or more high-paying icons like chicken, egg, wheat, rooster, and farmer offers significantly better prizes: between 200-2,500x total bet for each winning combination.
Wilds The wild symbol in Chicken Run Slots Game is a Farmer’s Egg, which can replace any of the other standard symbols to create new combinations. If two or more wild eggs appear on adjacent reels (in either direction), they become sticky wilds and remain locked in place during 1-2 re-spins.
Scatters The game includes a scatter icon called "Hatch". Three, four, or five scatters will launch the bonus round with up to 20 free spins. These rounds offer the chance for even higher winnings due to no upper limit on multipliers applied within them (i.e., it’s theoretically possible to get infinite stacked wilds). Additionally, each new free spin cycle begins after all previous ones have been played through.
Bonus Features One of several engaging bonus features in this release is Free Spins Bonus Round described above; another one happens when you catch 5+ matching Chicken symbols anywhere on screen because that triggers 2x Multiplier Spin wins applied alongside regular game results!
In addition to its main attraction – the Escape Mode feature starts automatically after collecting required scatter combinations at specific times during gameplay: During "Free Spins" mode, five more extra spins unlock potential multipliers up to tenfold those active before entry!
