Introduction The Chicken Road 2 slot machine game is a sequel to the original Chicken Road game developed by Yoyohome Interactive Entertainment Limited. This review will provide an in-depth analysis of the features, design, and gameplay mechanics that define this online slot machine.
Theme and Design Chicken Road 2 continues the Chicken Road 2 theme of its predecessor, maintaining a lighthearted and humorous approach to casino gaming. The game’s visual presentation is vibrant and colorful, with cartoon-like illustrations of various animals on the reels. The background design is consistent with the overall theme, featuring rolling hills, trees, and farm-related elements.
Symbols The game features several symbols that contribute to its unique atmosphere:
- Low-paying symbols: These include playing cards from 9-Ace (Joker replacement) as well as images of various animals such as cats, dogs, pigs, ducks, hens, goats, horses, sheep, and a wolf.
- High-paying symbols: Higher-value combinations are comprised of more exotic creatures like camels, elephants, lions, tigers, bears, crocodiles, rhinos, giraffes, monkeys, parrots, snakes, turtles, eagles, falcons, pandas, dolphins, whales, penguins, and various dinosaurs (T-Rex, Spinosaurus, Pterodactyl).
- Bonus symbols: In addition to standard high-paying combinations, bonus rewards are triggered by specific animal combinations.
Payouts Chicken Road 2 offers variable payout rates based on the selected bet amount. The maximum potential reward for each symbol combination varies from approximately €100 (for common cards) up to a staggering €25 million in case of rare dinosaur appearances or when any of these animals forms part of multiple-scatter combinations.
Wilds A wild card replaces other symbols except the scatter and is also used to complete winning lines. Wild can appear as either normal symbol at random on reels, but if three are encountered in an active play sequence within specific animal slots it converts one entire set of five wild tiles (for which only 2 exist per game state) into any special high-paying combination required without further drawing.
Scatters Two types of scatters contribute to the rewarding mechanics:
- Animal Scatter: Three or more Animal Scatters on adjacent reels will reward a guaranteed fixed win amount directly proportional to their count.
- Special Wild Scatter (SWS): Five in-a-row SWS provide instant entry into "Chicken Road 2" special game that takes place after completing free spins rounds described below.
Bonus Features The game includes several bonus features:
-
Free Spins: Reel combinations will trigger between one and ten extra opportunities for each spin of your winning round (max.20). A maximum cumulative value up to $100,000 can be accumulated across all such rounds when any "Wild" combination completes an otherwise broken combination or forms a new pattern on reels.
-
Chicken Road Bonus: Collect 5 animal scatters from one line or win extra bonuses that trigger a unique sequence of events starting with each possible bird appearing after three consecutive appearances – depending upon how they accumulate throughout playtime (see rules at end).
-
Bonus Jackpot Feature: During game’s main phase when 2 special "S" symbols show up on any two non-adjacent reels, an additional amount is immediately awarded; players receive 20 free rounds offering chance to collect either medium or large reward ($100-$10m).
