The "Chicken Run" slots game is a creative spin-off from the classic animated film of the same name. Developed by Betsoft Gaming, a renowned iGaming software provider, this online slot machine has gained popularity among players worldwide for its Chicken Run engaging gameplay and exciting features.

Theme and Design

As its title suggests, "Chicken Run" takes inspiration from the beloved stop-motion animation film about chickens planning to escape an evil farmer named Mr. Tweedy. The game’s backdrop is a picturesque farm with rolling hills, while the reels are adorned with cartoon-style graphics featuring main characters like Ginger, Rocky, and Mrs. Tweety.

Upon loading the game, players will notice the familiar colors of the movie – hues of green, red, blue, and yellow dominate the screen, immersing them in a lively atmosphere reminiscent of the film’s charm. The design is vibrant yet tasteful, not too flashy or overwhelming for a slot machine. The result is an engaging visual experience that draws players into the world of Aardman Animations’ Chicken Run.

Symbols

The paytable includes various symbols that complement the game’s theme:

• Low-paying symbols : The standard fruit icons (lemons, grapes, and watermelons) appear on all five reels.
• Medium-paying symbols : These are related to farming activities:
  • Haystacks
  • Wagon Wheels
  • Egg Shells
• High-paying symbols :
  • Ginger the Chicken
  • Rocky the Rooster
  • Mrs. Tweedy

The scatter symbol is depicted as Mr. Tweedy’s prison cell, and it activates free spins when two or more land on a payline.

Payouts

Winning combinations can be achieved through matching three to five identical symbols consecutively from left to right (starting with the first reel). The payout amounts are relatively low compared to other slots but offer consistent rewards due to their frequency. To give you an idea, here is a rough breakdown of winnings for each symbol:

• Fruit icons : 10-100 times the bet
• Medium-paying symbols :
  • Haystacks: 50-200 times the bet
  • Wagon Wheels: 75-300 times the bet
