Chicken Road 2 is a sequel to the popular Chicken Road video slot game developed by Rival Gaming. Released in 2009, it has become a classic among casino players, with its quirky theme and generous payouts continuing to attract fans of online slots.
Theme and Design
The theme of the game revolves around rural China, where players are taken on Chicken Road 2 a journey along a winding road lined with houses, shops, and farmland. The graphics are colorful and whimsical, featuring animated characters such as chickens, pigs, ducks, and even the occasional bicycle. While some may find the cartoonish style off-putting, others will appreciate its charm.
Symbols
The game features an assortment of standard symbols, including playing cards (9-A) adorned with Chinese motifs, along with several themed icons:
- Chicken : This is the Wild symbol in the game and can replace any other icon to create winning combinations.
- Rooster : Represents the Scatter symbol, triggering Free Spins when three or more land on consecutive reels from left to right.
- Piggy Bank : Rewards a cash payout for 5 of a kind and serves as the Bonus Trigger in certain rounds.
Other symbols include:
- House
- Duck
- Bicycle
Payouts
Chicken Road 2 offers standard payouts, with rewards ranging from 1x (for each type of card suit) up to 1000 coins for five Rooster Scatter Symbols. A full pay table is available on the game’s help section.
Wild and Special Features
The Rooster Wild symbol serves as a wild icon in Chicken Road 2, appearing stacked and helping players form more winning combinations by replacing any standard symbol on screen.
Three or more consecutive Roosters landing from left to right also initiate Free Spins. The number of rounds depends on the position where they land:
- Three: 3x (three) Free spins
- Four: 10x Free spins
- Five or six: 15x, or a random amount between five and fifteen times for more than six
Bonus Features
Two bonus features enhance gameplay in Chicken Road 2. Both are activated randomly during the main game:
- Rooster Bonus : This triggers upon landing three Roosters on reels two, three, and four; it then awards ten free spins with doubled winnings.
- Piggy Bank Bonus : With five of these icons (pigs) appearing anywhere in a row, players are awarded 100 to 400 times the initial bet as credit.
Free Spins
In addition to Free Spins from landing Roosters or winning special bonus features:
- One (1x) free spin is added for every winning combination featuring Chicken symbols within any round.
- Every five rounds also introduce a multiplier on all winnings during this sequence – with values increasing by one up to 5, then resetting upon each new run.
RTP and Volatility
Chicken Road’s RTP (Return to Player percentage) varies depending on how much is bet and which feature activates. Here are the theoretical probabilities based solely on the number of participants in play:
- Low Bet : approximately 93.49% – ‘Low’ being relative, but it may not accurately represent actual rates due to real-world factors such as active player influence.
- Mid Stake (~$1-$10 bet): a balanced RTP around 94% and moderate volatility.
We must stress that in the absence of public Rival Gaming data regarding Chicken Road’s exact theoretical payout percentages (RTP), and considering external influences such as the global online casino landscape, reported results should be approached with caution. Real user performance might not match projected outcomes.
Betting Range
The betting range for this slot machine is $0.01 per spin to a maximum of $50 on all 25 paylines, giving both low rollers and high-rollers room for maneuver in gameplay experimentation or even pure entertainment purposes without putting any risk beyond their chosen stakes at each session.
Max Win
Chicken Road 2’s jackpot sits at an astonishing 10,000 coins – though some will argue that these figures represent less real-world cash potential than similar classic slots with lower multipliers.
