Chicken Rush (BGaming) Slot Demo & Review

I often wonder if having a vivid imagination is a required qualification for anyone wanting to become a slot developer. Some of the themes these guys come up with for their slots are whacky, to say the least. Take Chicken Rush, the latest title from BGaming, as an example. Think again if you expect to spin the reels while farmyard chickens peck around in the background. Instead, we have chickens ruling the roost in the Wild West, toting their six-shooters, and planning bank heists. Still, it’s a fun theme for a slot I think many of you will enjoy. So, what about it’s vitals? Chicken Rush is a 5×5 slot with 3,125 ways to win, an impressive 97% RTP, and a 5,000x maximum win.

There is a big focus on multipliers in this latest release from BGaming. You’ll come across wild multipliers holding values of up to 10x the stake during the base game, while the free spins bonus could reward you with five multipliers worth up to the same value. Conversely, if you use the buy bonus feature, you can choose from three free spins variations to buy, the best of which gives you double the multipliers!

Are you clucking to see if this slot is good enough to make your playlist? Well, rather than throwing all your eggs into one basket by playing for real cash, why not get a feel for the game first via the Chicken Rush slot demo below?

Chicken Rush Slot Paytable

I believe this is the first time I’ve encountered Chicken Cowboys as a theme, but Chickens have taken centre stage in numerous other free slot games here on our platform. The Chicken Fox demo from Lightning Box is one good example, as it is focused on a Chicken doing its utmost not to become a fox’s next meal. It’s a simple 5×3 slot with 25 paylines and a 5,000x maximum win, but it does have three wild symbols and a free spins bonus with 2x wild multipliers. If you prefer Cluster Pays slots, then Pragmatic Play’s Chicken Drop demo is a good alternative. This is played over a 7×7 grid with cascading reels and a progressive feature aiding your hunt for the big payouts.

Speaking of payouts, it’s about time we looked into the paytable on the Chicken Rush slot. The Purple Chicken Cowboy is top of the pile and can feather your cap with returns of 3x the stake for a five of a kind win. The Orange Chicken Cowboy is next and has a top payout of 1.5x, while the Green Chicken is worth up to 1.25x. Finally, for the premium symbols, the Pistol can reward up to 0.75x, and the scrumptious-looking Roast Chicken symbol returns a maximum of 0.6x. The non-premiums are the classic playing cards, with the Ace and King worth up to 0.3x, the Queen and Jack up to 0.25x, and the Ten and Nine a maximum of 0.2x.

The betting range on Chicken Rush starts at a sensible €0.20 per spin and maxes out at €100.00 for each round. There are 19 stakes in total to choose from, which is what you’ll tend to find across the board from most BGaming slots, ensuring players of all sized budgets can join the action for real money play.


Chicken Rush Slot Base Game & Modifiers

The base game offers 3,125 ways to win across a 5-reel and 5-row grid configuration. Winning combinations form when three or more matching symbols land on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel.


Wild Multipliers

Wild symbols can appear in any position on the reels, substitute for all regular symbols, and hold a random multiplier of 2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x.


Chicken Rush Slot Bonus Features

While it’s nice to gobble up plenty of wins with the above multipliers applied, the best winning potential comes via a free spins bonus mode triggered when 3, 4, or 5 bonus scatter symbols land anywhere in view, awarding 5, 7, or 10 free spins.


Free Spins Feature

The free spins bonus plays out differently from what you might expect. The reels initially spin in wooden boxes, which may or may not explode or open to reveal:

  • Regular Symbol: At the start of the feature, a regular symbol is chosen as the only one that can appear during the bonus game.
  • +1 FS Symbol: This awards you an additional free spin.
  • Multiplier Symbol: Multipliers of 2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x can land on the reels. When they do, they’re collected in a meter to the left of the playing grid. You’ll need to collect five for those multipliers to activate at the end of the bonus. That will apply to random symbols on the grid.

Bonus Buy

You can also buy that bonus round outright or one of two better variations in return for a multiplier of your current stake.

  • Bronze: This is the standard bonus you can trigger via the base games, costing 50x your current stake.
  • Silver: For 100x, you can trigger a variation of the bonus, which guarantees the regular symbol is high value.
  • Gold: For 300x, you receive all the above, but if activated, the multipliers fire off twice, meaning 10 multipliers in total.

Pros

  • 97% RTP is tremendous for a slot game
  • Three buy bonus options.

Cons

  • The symbol payouts are on the low side.

Chicken Rush Slot Review Final Thoughts

BGaming has done a great job ensuring Chicken Rush is the perfect blend of entertainment, playability, and big-win potential. The RTP of 97% is amazing, and the wild multipliers are always welcome when they hit. Then there are the three buy bonus options, which will go down well for those who prefer higher risk and reward. All of that is wrapped up in a clucking fun theme.
