BGaming has released Chicken Rush 2, a step-risk game in which a chicken crosses the road on its way to a Lucky Club casino. However, the busy Las Vegas streets are a hazard for the small animal, adding a layer of thrill to this new title.
So, Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?
Chicken Rush 2 is a new step-risk addition to BGaming’s #Casual portfolio that provides a new answer to the famous “Why did the chicken cross the road?” question. While the original anti-joke’s answer is “To get to the other side,” BGaming provides a much less vague answer. For in the provider’s latest release, the chicken crosses the road in search of riches.
While the original Chicken Rush game was a Gold Rush-inspired Wild West adventure, Chicken Rush 2 is a much more lighthearted game that imagines its character as a somewhat distracted critter on its way to a casino in Las Vegas called Lucky Club during rush hour.
Players can customize the white chicken via the character skins option. One of the skins pays homage to the original Chicken Rush game, dressing the titular character as a cowboy. A high-roller skin turns the character into a confident chicken with a dandy suit, carrying a suitcase full of casino chips. The final skin imagines the chicken as a summer tourist seeking to enjoy the best Las Vegas has to offer.
Players Can Regulate the Volatility Based on Their Risk Appetite
So, what about the gameplay? After placing their bets, players can fire the yellow step button to have the chicken make a step forward. With every step, the chicken moves onto a different lane on the road. Each lane has a multiplier marked by a blue casino chip.
Taking a step can either mean claiming the multiplier or getting flattened by a car. The game ends when players decide that the chicken has gone far enough and use the Cashout option to claim their winnings or when the chicken is hit by a car. When the latter happens, the bet is lost.
The chicken isn’t the only thing players can customize, as they can also pick between four Volatility options – Easy, Medium, Hard, and Hardcore. Higher difficulty levels increase the chances of the chicken getting hit by a car but also offer higher multipliers.
The player is further spiced up by two Booster options. The Golden-Egg Multiplier Booster turns the blue multiplier chips gold and increases their value. The Step Booster, on the other hand, sends the chicken several lanes forward. The two Boosters are randomly activated when the chicken moves forward.
The Release Responds to Demands for Step-Risk Games
Boasting an RTP of 97% and a maximum payout of 2,505x, Chicken Rush 2 is a fun experience that diversifies BGaming’s portfolio of games. Vasili Pauliuchenko, game producer at BGaming, said:
Step-risk games are popular with players because every decision in them matters, and we wanted Chicken Rush 2 to give players even more control over how each round develops. The combination of selectable difficulty levels, collectible Boosters, and customizable character skins creates a highly replayable game where every journey across the road can feel different while remaining accessible from the very first step.
