Introduction to Chicken Road 2
Chicken Road 2 is a sequel to the popular Chicken Road slot game, developed by Pragmatic Play, a well-known online gaming provider. The original game was released in 2019, and its success paved the way for the creation of this new installment. As with most sequels, expectations are high, and players eagerly await what new features and rewards this updated version has to offer.
Theme
The theme of Chicken Road 2 remains largely unchanged from Chicken Road 2 the first iteration. The game takes place on a rural road where chickens roam freely, pecking at grains scattered along the way. The background image depicts a sunny farm scene with rolling hills and trees swaying in the breeze. Visually, the game exudes a sense of serenity and calmness, which may be misleading as the gameplay can be quite intense.
Design
The design of Chicken Road 2 is consistent with Pragmatic Play’s style and aesthetic. The slot features five reels arranged on a grid of 3×4, offering a total of 81 possible paylines. This is an increase from the original game, which had six reels but only 20 paylines. The slot also includes various symbols, both low-paying (cards) and high-paying (animals). Players can choose their preferred language and adjust settings to optimize gameplay.
Symbols
In Chicken Road 2, players will encounter a mix of standard symbols representing card values from nine to ace, plus several special icons. These include chickens in different poses, farm equipment like tractors and wagons, as well as rare and highly valuable items such as the egg-laying hen ( Scatter symbol) and the Golden Egg icon.
- The low-paying cards are represented by ten through ace.
- Animals include cats, dogs, cows, pigs, horses, and sheep. These can pay up to 1,000x the initial bet for five-of-a-kind combinations.
- Eggs scattered along the reels have higher payouts: two or three eggs will award 20-50 coins, four eggs earn between 100 and 250 coins (based on the bet size), while five of these symbols pay out a maximum of 5,000 credits.
- The Scatter symbol is represented by an egg-laying hen. Three or more hens anywhere in view initiate free spins mode.
Payouts
To determine payouts for winning combinations, we’ll use the example of landing three consecutive cats (highest-paying animal) on any given payline:
For a 1-credit bet: Three cat symbols will award 40x credits
For a 5-credit bet: Three cat symbols will reward 200x credits
