Chicken Run slots is a farm-themed online casino game developed by Microgaming, inspired by the popular animated movie of the same name. The slot machine boasts an array of features and mechanics that are both entertaining and rewarding for players.

Theme and Design

The theme of the slot revolves around a group of chickens who hatch a plan to escape from their sinister farmer owner, Mr. Tweedy. Players will find themselves immersed in Chicken Run the farm setting, where they can interact with various characters, including Ginger, the main protagonist chicken, as well as other lovable and quirky creatures.

The game’s design is an extension of its theme. The background depicts a picturesque farmland landscape, complete with rolling hills, lush green pastures, and the Tweedys’ farmhouse in the distance. The reels are adorned with various symbols, including 5 regular paying icons: Ginger, Rocky, Mrs. Tweedy, Mr. Tweedy, and two identical Egg symbol placeholders.

The slot’s user interface is intuitive, making it easy for new players to navigate. A top navigation bar allows access to important functions like setting the coin value and choosing from various bet amounts, which we’ll explore further below.

Symbols

There are 5 regular paying symbols in Chicken Run slots:

• Ginger: The leading female chicken from the movie, represented by a silhouette of her against a blue sky.
• Rocky: A plump, friendly rooster who becomes an ally to the chickens in their escape plan. He’s depicted with his bright red comb and wings spread wide.
• Mrs. Tweedy: A comically portrayed version of the sinister farm owner’s wife, known for her eccentricities and over-the-top antics. She appears as a hunched-over figure wearing a flower-patterned dress.
• Mr. Tweedy: The main antagonist from the movie, shown in his menacing, tweed-clad attire.

The two identical Egg symbol placeholders serve as scatters on this slot machine.

Wilds

There are no explicit wild symbols in Chicken Run slots; however, both Ginger and Rocky will occasionally appear as a "Chicken" stacked on any reel. These chicken symbols can potentially cover up to 4 rows across the screen (but not on all reels simultaneously).

Payouts

Payouts for matching combinations are based on the coin value set by each player:

• Ginger pays out between x10 and x50, depending on whether two or five of them appear in a combination.
• Rocky offers payouts ranging from x8 to x40 when found across 2-5 reels at once.
• Mrs. Tweedy’s winnings stretch from x6 (on the lowest reel) up to x30 for all 5 spots filled with this particular character icon.
• Mr. Tweedy – unfortunately for him, it is lower than his wife with paybacks ranging between 4 and 20 coins respectively.

Please note that a bet size directly affects how much any win will amount to; so ensure setting your preferred denomination according to budget before playing!

Scatters

The Egg icon (which acts as both scatter) can trigger free spins by landing two, three or four across the reels at the same time:

• Two Egs activate 1st level of Free Spins for x10 coins multiplier;
• Three will initiate the second highest prize round offering an impressive 5 times extra wins.
