New poultry-themed slot machines stand out regularly, and the last one from Pragmatic Play before that was Chicken Drop . However, Chicken Chase is a very different release in many ways, offering super-simple gameplay with low volatility and a maximum win of just 210 times your bet . However, it’s no problem to stay afloat, and the spin-and-hold feature awards plenty of free answers in the base game.

Getting a free answer with held reels every time you don’t land a 5-oak win is a highly unusual twist, and you get a lot of bang for your buck if you don’t worry too much about the potential. The chicken noise is also kept to a minimum, which is much appreciated, and the mood-lifting soundtrack takes you on a light-hearted jaunt around the countryside with occasional chicken pick prizes of up to 150x at best.

Chicken Chase slot features

The low value fruit/vegetable symbols pay 5 to 10 times your bet for 5-wins, while the 3 poultry premium symbols pay 30 to 80 times your bet for the same wins. The blue Wolf Wild symbol is the most valuable symbol in the game and awards 200x your bet for 5-oak wins, while it also substitutes for regular payout symbols to complete wins.

Whenever you win less than 5 oaks in the base game, the spin-and-hold feature is activated. The game automatically suggests which reels to hold and which reels to re-spin, but you can override this to freely choose as you see fit . You will then get a free respin for the reels that are not held and the win will be paid after the respin is played.

The bonus feature is triggered when you land at least 3 golden egg bonus scatters anywhere in sight, and it is a very simple instant prize bonus game. You can select 1 of 4 chickens, and the one you select drops an egg that reveals a random prize as follows:

• If 3 scatters triggered the feature, you can win 2x, 4x, 12x or 50x your bet.
• If 4 scatters triggered the feature, you can win 4x, 8x, 24x or 100x your bet.
• If 5 scatters trigger the feature, you can win 6x, 12x, 36x or 150x your bet.

The 200 Spins Chicken Chase Slot Experience

You can see exactly 1 minute of the base game, with lots of held back answers to boot, before we trigger the egg drop prize bonus feature. We triggered the feature with at least 3 scatters, and you can see for yourself what prize we walked away with by clicking the “Play” button below.

Summary

What can we say, Chicken Chase seems to be designed for players who just want to pass the time in a light-hearted and casual way. Accompanied by a cheerful melody, you can plow through many spins by holding down the space bar while Turbo is on. The low volatility will charge you regularly, and you’ll get a free response pretty much all the time. It’s probably best to trust that the game knows which reels to hold, and we saw no reason to interfere.

Of course, in terms of payouts you can’t expect anything remotely spectacular from a game like this, not least as the maximum win is only 210 times your stake . The single bonus game is also super simple, but even the biggest prize isn’t enough to crack the potential. Chicken Chase is a perfect game to relax in after a long day, as you don’t have to worry too much about your bankroll. It’s also a decent warm-up act to get your juices flowing before you move on to more volatile challenges.
