The Great Chicken Escape

The Great Chicken Escape Slot

The Great Chicken Escape is a fun, quirky video slot released by Pragmatic Play in 2019. It follows the adventures of Charlie and the other chickens in his gang as they plot an escape plan. It takes you through bonus games and modifiers, with the payout ever increasing as you successfully overcome an obstacle on the way to fowl freedom.

The RTP of The Great Chicken Escape is 96.5% and the volatility is medium to high, supplying frequent small wins. The slot is played on the familiar layout of five reels and three rows with 20 paylines. The maximum win is 500x, but with the gamble feature added, you never know what you’re going to get.

How to Play

The betting range here is suitable for both beginners and advanced players, ranging from $0.2 to $100. Once you’ve selected your bet size, you can also enable the Autoplay settings – number of spins and loss limit.

The high-paying symbols are the game logo and the chickens, and the paytable is completed by the low-paying card symbols A, K, Q, and J. There is also a wild that replaces all symbols except the Bonus scatter. Three or four Bonus symbols trigger a random feature and five unlock the Big Money Bonus.

• Guard Dog Wilds – between four and nine dog wilds are added to the reels at random.
• Chicken Run Wilds feature – any two, three, or four reels can randomly become wild, i.e. the whole reels is covered with stacked wilds.
• Care Package – during a random spin, stacked golden eggs are added to the reels. When the spin is over, all stacked eggs will transform into a random symbol except the wild and bonus scatter.

Three or four Bonus symbols activate one of the five Great Chicken Escape bonus features at random.

Secret Tunnel Bonus

This is a classic “pick one” bonus feature with three chest symbols that will reveal a cash prize, “Mystery Tunnel” or “Collect.” If you’ve gotten the Mystery Tunnel, you will then get to select one of four tunnels. One of them will grant you access to one of the other four bonus features. “Collect” ends the feature.

Poultry in Motion

There are 22 points that represent different cash prizes. Pick one of five golden eggs to get money prizes and win steps, the aim being to move forward as many steps as possible – if you collect enough steps to get all the way to the end, you will enter The Great Escape Big Money Bonus feature. “Collect” means the feature is over.

Get Clucky Free Spins

The feature awards ten free spins with a new Wanted wild symbol appearing on the reels at random on any and increases the multiplier by 1x.

To The Other Side Free Spins

During nine free spins, the wild symbol can land randomly on all reels. Collect the wilds so that they appear on the reels again during a tenth free spin.

The Great Escape Big Money Bonus

Twelve barrels are displayed on a carousel. You get to pick one or more golden eggs to get more spins until you hit “Collect.” Each of the barrels reveals a prize, the biggest one being 500x bet size.

And that’s not all. After every bonus feature, you can opt into a gamble feature for a chance to increase your winnings. If you lose, you get a consolation cash prize.

Verdict

The Great Chicken Escape will keep you on your toes with its modifiers and bonus features that lead to even more winning opportunities. The story is fun, the characters are entertaining, and, as with any other Pragmatic Play slot, graphics and animations are of the highest quality. The slot maintains an above-average RTP and high volatility which means there’s a lot more than just fun to be had here.
