The casino slot game "Chicken Cross" is a farm-themed online slot machine developed by Betsoft Gaming. The game revolves around chickens crossing roads, and its design takes inspiration from classic cartoon-style animations.
Gameplay and Design
Chicken Cross features 5 reels with 3 rows, set against the backdrop of a peaceful rural landscape. Players can select from various coin denominations ranging from $0.01 to $1.00, allowing for a Chicken Cross casino minimum bet of $0.01 and a maximum bet of $100 per spin.
Symbols
The game’s symbols include farm-themed icons such as chickens, roosters, cows, pigs, and eggs, alongside traditional playing card values (9-Ace). The most valuable symbol is the Rooster Wild icon, which can replace any other standard symbol to form winning combinations. Scatters are represented by a Barn icon.
Payouts
Payouts in Chicken Cross are determined by the paytable displayed on-screen. Players can win up to 400 times their initial bet when landing five consecutive chicken symbols across all five reels. Standard playing card values offer smaller payouts ranging from x5 to x100, while farm-themed icons reward higher amounts between x10 and x50.
Wilds
The Rooster icon is a stacked wild symbol that appears on the second and fourth reels only during base gameplay. When this occurs, it can replace all other symbols (except Scatters) in any winning combination.
Bonus Features
Chicken Cross features two primary bonus features: Free Spins and Scatter Wins.
Free Spins
Free spins are triggered by landing at least three Barn icons anywhere on the 5 reels. The number of free spins awarded increases with each additional Barn icon landed (3 = 10 FS; 4 = 20 FS; 5 = 30 FS). During this bonus feature, Rooster Wilds become sticky and remain in place throughout the free spin round.
Scatter Wins
Landing three or more Barn Scatters anywhere on the reels awards a payout of up to x100 based on the player’s current total bet. In addition to these payouts, landing four or five scatters also activates one of two instant bonus features:
1. Fowl Bonus : A multiplier-based feature where players can pick from several farm items (e.g., eggs, hay bales) to reveal a random multiplier between x2 and x10. 2. Chicken Frenzy : A cash- awarding feature that randomly rewards the player with one of three prize amounts: $20, $50, or $100.
RTP and Volatility
The theoretical Return-To-Player (RTP) percentage for Chicken Cross is 95.05%, which falls within a relatively average-to-high volatility range compared to other online slots on the market.
Betting Range
Players can adjust their bets using various coin values from $0.01 to $1, allowing them to choose between low and high bet amounts per spin (minimum $0.01, maximum $100).
