The Crossy Road casino slot is an adaptation of the popular mobile game developed by Hipster Whale. This online version brings the same engaging gameplay to players on PC or laptop, with a variety of symbols and features that cater Crossy Road for free to different tastes.
Theme and Design
As its name suggests, the Crossy Road slot revolves around the idea of crossing roads safely while avoiding obstacles, similar to the original game’s concept. The visuals are colorful, vibrant, and cartoon-like, reminiscent of classic 8-bit video games from the past. Players can choose between different day-night cycles, which affects the design elements and overall ambiance of the game.
The background represents a cityscape with multiple roads crossing each other, adding to the sense of movement and chaos. The symbols used in the slot are based on the original game’s characters, including animals such as cows, pigs, sheep, and more exotic creatures like an ostrich. There is also a chicken symbol representing the character from the original Crossy Road.
Symbols and Payouts
The payout system of the Crossy Road slot follows standard rules seen in many modern slots. Each animal symbol has its own unique payout multiplier when matched on adjacent reels (1 to 5). For example, matching five cows results in a higher payout compared to landing only three cows.
Below are the main symbol payouts and their corresponding multipliers:
- Chicken: 0.05x – 50x
- Cow: 0.10x – 100x
- Pig: 0.15x – 150x
- Sheep: 0.25x – 250x
There is also a Wild symbol that replaces regular animals, offering the highest potential payouts when appearing on reels. The Wild symbol’s multiplier can be combined with other animal symbols for even higher gains.
Wilds
As mentioned earlier, the chicken character serves as the game’s Wild card. It appears frequently across different combinations and day-night cycles, adding an extra layer of excitement to each spin. When the Chicken Wild lands on reels 2 or 4, it can expand its impact by covering adjacent positions on either side.
Scatters
In Crossy Road, there is no traditional Scatter symbol used in other slots; however, players will encounter a road sign (or "caution") during certain events described below. These signs indicate that they have entered the ‘Bonus Zone.’
The game also uses a mechanic called ‘Wild Stacking,’ where stacking Wilds create a unique effect on reels 2 and 4.
Bonuses and Free Spins
Crossy Road contains various bonus features inspired by its mobile gaming origins:
-
Chicken Frenzy Bonus : When at least one Chicken is present in view, pressing the ‘Flee’ button initiates this mode, replacing all animals with chickens for a set number of spins.
-
Wild Stack Bonus : If reels 2 and/or reel 4 are occupied by Wilds during base play or as part of any bonus round initiated hereafter; those positions turn wild at end-of-round awards after stacking to cover both adjacent spaces, further expanding possibilities beyond initial impact described above.
-
Multipliers with Stacked Reels : Multipliers (up to ×100) apply in accordance with numbers stacked upon specific reels prior activation within free-spins segments activated via certain win triggers listed below.
- A scatter symbol can appear at any time while playing normally and doesn’t initiate its usual function because of design principles prioritizing ‘Bonus Zones.’
- This has given rise to another special event – The Road Crosser Event , when after achieving high-value combinations or using all possible combos; one road will change direction.
