Lucky Clucks™ Slot Review
Source: Microgaming
This is one clucking good slots game, y'all - no jokes! Not the first animal-themed creation to grace Ruby Fortune Online Casino Canada, true. But believe us when we say that there's nothing unoriginal when it comes to Lucky Clucks™.
Dubbed a "fantastic frenzy of feathers", Lucky Clucks™ has all the elements of farmhouse fun. The mandatory barn painted bright red and white. The home-made wooden fence. The rolling green hills, dotted with cows, pigs, goats and sheep. The stacks of sunshine-yellow hay. The bright blue sky. The weathervane.
The cherry on the top? It has something most farms don't: fields upon fields of payout opportunities. You can thank Crazy Tooth Studio® and Microgaming for that one.
We'll get into the BIG BuildUp™ action and Raise The Roof Bonus in a moment. First, let's go over some game stats and general info. Why? To get you better acquainted with your new potential favourite, of course!
Reel Structure And Ways To Win
Those spinning Lucky Clucks™ for the first time will notice one of two things. The first is that this slot features an atypical reel structure, with 5 fixed reels and 3-4-4-4-3 rows. The second is that a 576 ways-to-win mechanic replaces the traditional paylines.
Trademarked as ANY ADJACENT PAYS™ in this game, ways-to-win works on a unique concept. Instead of payline-based payouts, potential wins can now appear anywhere on the reels. The only must-have? Three or more matching symbols in adjacent positions.
Bet Sizes And Max Wins
You can choose to stick to the default bet size of 1.50 credits, or play around with your settings as you go. The lowest you can bet is 0.15 credits a spin, and the highest is 15. Bear in mind, though, that the max payout amount of 33,028 is only possible when playing on max bet. The lower your bet size, the lower your potential.
This is a good place for a quick word on responsible gaming. When you’re in the moment, it’s easy to lose sight of your balance. Instead, you can choose to set up automatic deposit limits and other handy controls on your Ruby Fortune account, whether you’re playing mobile casino games or traditional online slots.
Once these safety measures are in place, you can play without stress, enjoying your games for what they are: a source of entertainment!
Game Customisations
Besides toggling your bet size, there are a few other ways you can customise your gaming on Lucky Clucks™. Autoplay spins are available, for example, and allow you to automatically spin the reels between 10 and 100 times without interruption.
If you strike the Raise The Roof Bonus, however, your game will go back to manual mode.
You can also choose to play with audio on or off, enable or disable game tutorial messages and access the paytable at any time if you need a refresher on how payouts are awarded.
Stats Overview
If you’re into the math, Lucky Clucks™ provides an RTP of 96.19%, on top of a total hit frequency of 28.72%. A high volatility release, you can expect this game to pay out less often than low or medium volatility slots, with a punchier prize.
BIG BuildUp™ Feature
Super-fun and appearing at random, BIG BuildUp™ is the name of the feature that awards persistent and potential Wilds, credit prizes and Multipliers to the spin it activates on. How will you know when the feature’s active? Keep an eye on the nest hens, perched on top of the reels. One hen can lay multiple eggs, and all eggs laid crack open to reveal hidden prizes.
Prizes include the Mother Hen, which can pay out between 7.50 and 4500 credits, which is increased by between 2 and 15 credits if accompanied by a corn symbol. Multipliers of up to 5x are also up for grabs, as well as Wild substitutes.
BIG BuildUp™ ends when all the hidden prizes have been revealed.
Raise The Roof Bonus
Triggered by 3 or more Scatter symbols, the Raise The Roof Bonus awards between 5 and 9 Free Spins. As you can imagine with a name like that, the barn house roof literally raises by several levels in reels where hen symbols appear. This, in turn, increases your ways to win exponentially.
Another fun thing about the Raise The Roof Bonus is that the farmyard scene changes from day to night, taking on a different atmosphere altogether in the process. Plus, the silhouettes of some dancing pigs show up too.
And once your Raise The Roof Bonus takings have been paid out, you’re greeted with a ‘Clucking Lucky’ message on your screen. And we sure love a good sense of humour here at Ruby!
