The Great Chicken Escape Slot Review – Pragmatic Play

Pragmatic Play is one studio known for using a lot of different and more obscure themes compared to other studios. While also reusing popular themes such as Asian-inspired themes very frequently. Today we look back to 2019 to learn about a very underrated and exciting slot release. Today we learn all about ‘The Great Chicken Escape‘, originally released 26th July 2019 across all sites.

The Great Chicken Escape Slot Review Casino pragmatic Play Base Game Visuals

As stated in the title this slot is about chickens escaping, something new but very strange for a slot theme. Well, the inspiration could be from the classic kid’s movie ‘Chicken Run‘. In the background, you can see the chicken’s huts and homes. The background has good detail and is a different art style compared to other games. The game background is dull within the colour scheme, the reel set shows off the vibrancy within the symbols art style.

The Great Chicken Escape has a classic setup of  5 reels by 3 rows, this includes 20 set pay lines. This game is medium volatility due to the capped max win of 5,000x and set RTP of 96.5%. You can bet from £0.10-£100.

Conclusion

Overall, this game does remind me of many different Blueprint gaming releases. This is due to the array of features. Especially the feature gamble/collect mechanic. It seems Pragmatic Play are trying new things, however, another provider is already well known for this concept. These game foes have potential with a max win of 5,000x.
