Overview of Chicken Road

Chicken Road is an online casino slot machine developed by InOut Games, a relatively new but rapidly growing game development company in the iGaming industry. This game has been gaining popularity among players due to its unique theme, engaging gameplay features, and lucrative payout potential.

Theme and Design

The game’s theme revolves around the Wild West era of America, where cowboys would travel on dirt roads amidst chickens roaming freely in the surrounding countryside. The design is simple yet attractive, with vibrant Chicken Road Canada colors used throughout the reels. The background image shows a serene landscape of rolling hills and vast open spaces.

Symbols and Payouts

The game features 5 reels, each containing 3 rows of symbols, resulting in a total of 15 possible winning combinations per spin. Symbols include traditional playing card numbers (9 to A) that serve as lower-paying icons, while the higher-value ones are represented by chickens with different hats.

Wild Symbol

Chicken Road has two wild symbols: the cowboy and the chicken wearing a hat. Both of these symbols can appear on all reels except for the first one during normal gameplay. The cowboy acts as the regular wild symbol, substituting any other icon in the paytable to form winning combinations.

Wild Feature

  • Can be stacked
  • Substitutes low-paying playing card values only
  • Cannot substitute chicken symbols (except when a bonus feature is triggered)
  • No special multiplier applied during this process

Scatter Symbol

The Scatter symbol, represented by the cowboy hat lying on its side, is present solely on reel 3. Landing at least two Scatters will initiate the game’s bonus round.

Scatter Feature

  • Awarded free spins
  • Can appear on all reels
  • Counts towards initiating the Free Spins Bonus but does not contribute to any winnings within that feature

Bonus Features

The Chicken Road slot has three types of bonus rounds: two standard ones and a more complex bonus game called "Free Spin Bonus".

Standard Bonuses (1, 2)

  1. Chickens on Reels : Randomly triggers during gameplay
    • Piles chicken symbols on reel stacks up to the full length
    • Wins triggered by these chickens are paid out and their values add together with each spin until they disappear

Free Spin Bonus

  • Three Scatter cowboy hats initiate this feature on any non-winning Free Spins
  • Wild Chicken : One bonus symbol is added per chicken collected. Up to 12 Wild Chickens can be accumulated in one session, triggering a maximum of two additional rounds in the free spin count.

Wild Chicken

  • Has no inherent value but participates in the wild mechanism during its active period within that round
  • Accumulates according to bonus feature rules, stacking across different sessions without an explicit reset condition

Free Spins Count

Players can get multiple sets of 10 Free Spins (with accumulated Wild Chickens) at once.

Return To Player (RTP) : 96%
