Chicken Run

Chicken Run is a 5-reel online slot machine game developed by Microgaming, released in 2017 as part of their popular slots collection. Based on the classic Aardman Animation film of the same name, this game brings to life the misadventures of Ginger, a plucky and determined chicken, and her egg-cellent escapades.

Theme and Design

The Chicken Run slot machine is set against the backdrop of an https://chickengames.eu/chicken-run/ animated farmyard, complete with chickens pecking at the ground, farm animals roaming about, and the sounds of clucking hens filling the air. The graphics are colorful and whimsical, capturing the lighthearted spirit of the original film. Players will feel as though they’ve stepped into a world where birds have taken over the farm.

The reels themselves feature an assortment of characters from the movie, including Ginger (Wild symbol), Rocky the Rooster, Mrs. Tweedy’s Chicken Coop, and several other recognizable faces from the Aardman Animation classic. Each character has its own unique animation style when landing on a payline or during bonus rounds.
