Chicken Road 2 is a casino slot game that belongs to the sequel category of slots developed by Yggdrasil Gaming. The first installment, released in 2017, was an instant hit due to its engaging gameplay and enticing bonus features. With the success of the predecessor, the developers have worked on refining the mechanics while retaining what made it popular.

Theme

The theme revolves around a farm-themed setting where players get transported into a rustic countryside filled with animals. The game’s Chicken Road 2 backdrop showcases rolling hills, windmills, and wooden fences creating an idyllic atmosphere perfect for farming or playing slots.

One of the defining aspects of Chicken Road 2 is its unique take on traditional slot symbols. Instead of classic fruit, number-based paytables or mythical creatures, Yggdrasil opted to feature various farm-related objects like watering cans, tractors, and cows alongside those of animals such as chickens, pigs, sheep, and horses.

Design

The game has undergone visual enhancements compared to its predecessor. The improved graphics now render the visuals clearer with a modern aesthetic that appeals visually. Upon starting play or examining the symbols at length, there is no real sense of urgency nor need for rapid character swaps; instead, each part of the slot does take advantage from the clear definition – everything feels well-designed.

Symbols

The game boasts an impressive selection of high-paying symbols featuring farm animals and equipment essential to running a successful agricultural operation. The standard paytable consists of:

1. Chicken (10x) – One-legged chicken with vibrant plumage. 2. Cow (20x) – A large bovine, a classic farmhouse companion. 3. Sheep (25x) – Pastoral animal providing fleece for clothing and woolly comforters.

Paying slightly higher are the Farm Equipment symbols:

1. Tractor (40x) 2. Watering Can (50x).

Payouts

Winnings from winning combinations can be expected based on their highest value across all of these sets provided they occur left to right from reel one and five with none in-between so you end up with lower earnings at least occasionally for smaller wins.

Some interesting observations regarding payout mechanics include how symbols align together – multiple low paying animals combined yield better values than a few medium-to-high payers.
