The Chicken Run Game, also known as "Chicken Frenzy" or simply "Fowl Play", is a farm-themed online casino slot developed by 1x2Gaming, a UK-based game developer with over two decades of experience in the industry. This five-reel slot machine Chicken Run casino is packed with various features that promise to deliver an entertaining and potentially rewarding gaming experience.
Theme and Design
The theme of Chicken Frenzy revolves around farm life, specifically the popular cartoon film Chicken Run. Players are immersed in a virtual world where they can engage in farm activities while trying their luck at winning cash prizes. The slot machine’s design is colorful and lively, featuring animated characters from the movie. At first glance, the game appears to be a simple five-reel slot with 20 fixed paylines; however, this simplicity belies an array of exciting features that add depth and complexity to gameplay.
Symbols
The Chicken Frenzy slots use standard playing card symbols (Ace through King) as lower-paying icons. Higher-value symbols are inspired by the movie’s characters and farm objects, such as Ginger, Mrs. Tweedy, Rooster, Farmer Feathers, Tractor, Pigsty, Farm Gate, Feed Bucket, Basket of Eggs, Chicken Coop Door, Birdseed Bag, Red Feathers Hat, Turbine Engine, Egg Tray, Yellow Planks, Frying Pan, White Feather Boa, Green Feed Sack, and an Ace. The Wild icon features the movie’s poster in the center.
Payouts
When a player lines up five identical symbols from left to right across any of the 20 paylines, they receive the payout for that symbol. The standard card values are 2-10 (Royal Flush style) with x5 payouts, while higher-value icons offer more substantial returns: Ginger is worth x300, Mrs. Tweedy – x250, Rooster and Farmer Feathers – x200 each.
Wilds
The Wild icon can substitute for any symbol in the game to form winning combinations except the Scatter, Chicken Egg, which triggers free spins.
Scatters & Bonus Features
Three or more scattered chickens anywhere on reels 1-5 activate a new feature. Here, two bonus games are chosen at random: either "Chicken Chase" or "Egg Hunt". In "Chicken Chase", three chickens randomly choose one of six egg locations where they fly to deliver an egg containing cash awards ranging from 50x (0.25-2 EUR) to 15000x (7.5 EUR) the original bet for a single chicken per reel spin with maximum stakes.
Free Spins
The Chicken Frenzy slot machine offers three free spins features, all part of its Scatter feature when six or more symbols are collected:
- The "Chicken Egg" bonus is awarded if no special power-up was found within this area.
- The first free spin mode includes 10 free spins with a starting bet value that may change during play for all games but the last one on each level of reels 1 through five until there’s only one game left then you see these changes as they reflect your odds changing slightly due to different ways bets were used across this new way since every time things changed so much differently even sometimes not very noticeable still many felt like an exciting change compared what happened other times.
