A traditional red barn filled with banknotes sounds like an ideal setting for a farm-based online slot machine and that’s exactly what we have with Chicken Fox, a game developed by Lightning Box with some clever free spins and a host of farmyard characters.

Chicken Fox is a five reel slot with three rows and twenty five fixed paylines; the interior of that red barn is where those rels spin with cash spilling out from the shelves on either side.

The high value symbols are all related to the theme and include four chickens along with a tractor, a pig and a goat; 10, J, Q, K and A make up the lower values.

In the base game the lady with the pie is wild and she’ll substitute for all others to form winning matches except for the golden egg bonus symbol.

Bonus Features

Free Spins

This is triggered by landing three, four or five of the golden egg scatter symbols anywhere in view for which you will receive 8, 15 or 30 free spins respectively; there’s also some interesting extra stuff going on in this round which could make it a bit more profitable:

• Only chickens, blanks and two wild foxes appear on the reels. One fox is a 2x multiplier for any wins.
• Prizes can be won by landing foxes and chickens on the same spin. Bigger chickens earn bigger prizes.
• More free spins can be won by landing foxes and eggs on the same spin – up to five for a standard fox and up to ten for a 2x wild fox.
• One or two extra free spins can be won by by landing a standard fox or 2x wild fox with no chickens or eggs in view.

Hopefully that’s all clear!

Verdict

Chicken Fox is a cheerful, animal-themed slot which would be enjoyable even if it were not for the inventive free spins round and the good news is that the chickens never seem to be in any real peril from the marauding foxes. It’s good fun and definitely recommended.
