Casino Game Inspired by Nick Park’s Animated Film, Chicken Run
The casino game "Chicken Run" is a slots machine designed to mimic the popular animated film of the same name, directed by Peter Lord and Nick Park. The movie was released in 2000 and tells the story of a group of Chicken Run chickens who hatch a plan to escape from their farmer, Mrs. Tweedy.
Theme
The theme of this slot game is centered around the movie’s plot, featuring colorful graphics and animations inspired by the film. Players can expect to see familiar characters from the movie on the reels, including Ginger the chicken, Rocky the rooster, and Mrs. Tweedy among others. The backdrop of the game features a stylized image of the farm where most of the story takes place.
Design
The game is designed with 5×3 reels, offering 10 paylines in total. Players can choose to play with different line selections between 1-10 lines per spin, which affects their potential payouts and overall experience. The symbols on each reel are various farm-related items such as eggs, carrots, tractors, and the movie’s iconic "escape" sign.
Symbols
The game has a variety of standard playing cards (9-Ace) used for low-paying combinations as well as higher-value farm-themed icons that award more substantial prizes. Some key symbols worth mentioning include:
- Ginger: A high-payout chicken symbol appearing only on reels 2, 3, and 4.
- Rocky: The rooster icon pays a decent amount but appears less often than Ginger or other special characters.
Payouts
The payouts in this game are fairly standard compared to most slot machines. Low-paying combinations (e.g., playing cards) offer small rewards while the more valuable farm-related icons pay out anywhere from 5-50 times your bet per spin.
- Wild symbols, represented by Ginger’s silhouette or her full face will substitute other characters on reels to create successful winning combinations and award multipliers for their wins.
- Scatters also present on some special slots include bonus eggs – while these are different as they may offer prizes regardless of line alignment.
Wilds
The game features a wild symbol, represented by Ginger’s silhouette or her full face. The wilds act identically to each other and can appear in any position across all reels except the top reel (reel 5). When involved in combinations that award higher cash values, their multipliers will vary; if used without participating directly within winning combinations then those symbols themselves become completely voided before resulting payouts calculation occurs.
