Chicken Run is a popular online casino slot game developed by NetEnt, based on the classic 2000 animated movie of the same name produced by Aardman Animations and DreamWorks Animation. The game was released in 2018 and Chicken Run game has since become one of the most beloved slots among players worldwide.

Theme and Design

The theme of Chicken Run revolves around the escape plan hatched by Ginger, a clever chicken from the coop, to save her fellow birds from the sinister clutches of Mrs. Tweedy’s farm. The slot game takes place on a 5×3 grid with 25 fixed paylines, giving players an ample number of ways to win.

Upon launching the game, players are greeted by vibrant and colorful graphics reminiscent of the film. The background is set against a picturesque countryside landscape complete with rolling hills, fields, and rustic buildings. Characters from the movie make their way onto the reels, including Ginger, Rocky (the brave rooster), and Mrs. Tweedy, adding to the game’s charm.

Symbols

The slot features a range of symbols inspired by the film:

  • Card values 9 through Ace appear in various colors and represent the lower-paying combinations.
  • The chicken coop serves as a scatter symbol and can trigger bonus rounds when at least three land on the reels.
  • A pair of pigtails, Ginger’s iconic hairstyle, serves as the game’s wild symbol. It has the ability to substitute for any standard icon (except the chicken coop) in winning combos.
  • Mrs. Tweedy and Rocky make an appearance as high-paying characters.
  • The free spins bonus is represented by a picture of the Flying V formation from the movie.

Payouts

In Chicken Run, payouts start at 10 coins for five matching card values, increasing up to 1,250 coins for five wild symbols (Ginger’s Pigtails) in combination with other characters. The top prize stands at 2,000x bet value when a player lands three chicken coops on the reels during free spins.

Wilds

The game features two types of wild icons: Ginger’s pigtails and the ‚Flying V‘ formation. While Ginger can substitute for any standard symbol to create winning combinations (except the coop), the Flying V represents the free spins bonus, as mentioned earlier.
