The Chicken Run slot game is a quirky and entertaining online slot developed by Microgaming. Based on the 2000 stop-motion animated comedy film of the same name, this slot transports players to the world of Galliformes Farm, where they must help Ginger’s flock escape from the sinister clutches of Mr. Tweedy.

Theme Chicken Run and Design

The Chicken Run slot game boasts a charming countryside theme, complete with lush green pastures, rolling hills, and fluffy farm animals. The reels are set amidst a wooden gate, while the background features a picturesque landscape replete with cows, sheep, and of course, chickens. Players will encounter various lovable characters from the movie, including Ginger (the lead chicken), Rocky (a tough but lovable rooster), Bunty (Ginger’s mate), and the bumbling Mr. Tweedy.

Gameplay Overview

The Chicken Run slot game features a standard 5-reel, 25-payline setup that offers multiple ways to win big. The minimum bet is set at €0.01 per spin, while the maximum wager reaches up to €1,250 for high-rollers. Players can choose from four coin denominations: $0.01, $0.02, $0.05, or $0.10.

Paytable and Symbols

The Chicken Run slot game boasts an impressive collection of symbols inspired by the movie’s beloved characters. These include Ginger (the highest-paying symbol), Rocky, Bunty, Mr. Tweedy, as well as various farm animals such as cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, turkeys, eggs, and a barn door.

Here’s how these symbols pay out when three or more appear on an active line:

• Ginger: up to 100x total bet
• Rocky: up to 50x total bet
• Bunty: up to 40x total bet
• Mr. Tweedy: up to 30x total bet
• Farm animals (cows, sheep, chickens, ducks): up to 20x total bet

Payouts and Wild/Scatter Features

The Chicken Run slot game offers two types of special symbols: wilds and scatters. The chicken icon serves as the wild symbol, substituting for any regular symbol except for the scatter to help create winning combinations.

• Wild Symbol:
  • Replaces other symbols (except Scatter) in a winning combination
  • Can appear stacked on reels 2-5

The Barn Door scatter is another important symbol that appears frequently enough to trigger the game’s bonus features. When three, four, or five scatters land anywhere on the reels, players unlock various rewards.

Free Spins and Bonus Features

When two barn doors appear with one door in each base reel 2-5 (on consecutive reels), a second screen shows Ginger and her friends trying to break free. Players can choose which farmer will help them escape – if they’re lucky, the slot will award bonus Free Games.

Free Spins feature:

• Up to 25 Free Spin games with 3x multiplier
• Each time you collect two Scatters during this game mode, you’ll receive five additional spins

Bonus Escape! (Reels 2-4 show stacked wilds; Barn Door appears on the remaining reel):

• The slot enters ‘Escape Mode’, offering a series of new symbols and higher payouts for winning combinations.
