Funky Chicks Slot from WGS (formerly Vegas Technology). It’s not quite what you think - there are no scantily clad young women gallivanting across the screen in their red undies trying to dance. No; chicks refers to baby chickens in this case, and this 5 reel, 25 payline standard-sized slot is the sequel to the ever-popular Funky Chickens Slot from the same company. The theme is clearly one of a middle-American farmscape, with birds, foxes, hens, and other denizens of that kind of environment populating the reels.
As for the specific symbols, you’ll be glad to see some of the old familiars from the first game. Tommy is here, as well as Mother Hen and Funky Chicken Jr. The higher card suits from Poker are there as well, and there’s a farmer and fox making their presences felt, too. Funky Chicken Jr. is the Wild or substitute symbol, and he can replace any other symbol on the reels except for the Scatter symbol. When he replaces symbols, it’s to help you complete a winning payline. Somewhat uniquely for a 5 reel slot, the Wild symbol here also multiplies whatever payout you win by a factor of 3, and if you land 5 of him he nets you a cool 5,000 coins. Not a bad take for an evening of work, eh?
The maximum bet on this slot is $250, and there’s a way to capture a tremendous advantage in the 30 Free Spins that can be awarded with the correct combination. By the way, the Mother Hen is the Scatter symbol, and multiples of her is what you want showing up on the reels in order to nab those Free Spins. Some of the other prizes come from the Tommy character, who presides over the farm and delivers 500 coins if 5 of his symbols show up.
So, is Funky Chicks Slot a good one to play? Well, the Return to Player rating (RTP in industry lingo) is an more than adequate 96%. Much of this comes from the numerous smaller prizes that seem to pop up, as well as your chance to hit the big jackpot and take thousands and thousands of credits home. Even if you win just a little, that amounts to 10 Free spins to use to try your luck again and again on the House dime, essentially. Play Funky Chicks Slot today from WGS - it’s a smash!
