A 7x7 grid with a farm theme makes Chicken Drop a cluster pays slot. A win forms when at least 4 matching symbols connect horizontally or vertically. After every win, the Tumble Feature removes the winning symbols and drops new ones into place, so one spin can build several wins in a row. BONUS chests anywhere on the grid open the free spins round.
Three or more BONUS chests during a free spins round add 5 spins, with no limit on how often this happens. Size and multiplier upgrades stay for the whole round instead of resetting each spin. At least one egg drops on every free spin. The Progressive Multiplier and Symbol Transform build on the Cluster Pays and Tumble base.
100 times the bet buys the round outright, so at the top example bet of A$0.40 it costs A$40.

Extra spins ahead
This section settles how each mode starts, what happens inside it, and how many spins you get.
Free Spins start when 4, 5 or 6 BONUS chests land on the grid, awarding 10, 15 or 20 spins. Three or more BONUS chests during the round add 5 spins, with no limit. Size and multiplier upgrades persist all round; at least one egg drop is guaranteed each spin.
Base gameExtra spins
A purchase for 100x the current total bet instantly triggers the Free Spins round. The number of BONUS chests that land, 4, 5 or 6, gives 10, 15 or 20 spins and is randomized at purchase time.
Ready to betInstant Free Spins
Every spin starts on the fixed 7x7 grid. A cluster pays when at least 5 matching symbols connect horizontally or vertically, and the Tumble Feature runs after every win.

Five steps, one round
Read this and you will know how one Chicken Drop round runs, from first bet to final payout.
Pick a bet from A$0.20 up to A$240 before the first spin. The paytable shows payouts for A$0.20, so multiply them for higher bets.
A win needs at least five matching symbols connected horizontally or vertically on the 7x7 grid. After each win the Tumble Feature runs on the same grid.
The base game combines Cluster Pays with a Progressive Multiplier and Symbol Transform. BONUS chests count as Scatter symbols anywhere on the grid, so their spot does not matter.
Four, five or six BONUS chests start the Free Spins round with 10, 15 or 20 spins. Three or more chests during the round add 5 spins, with no limit.

Bonsai Casino puts the demo beside the real game, so you choose with the rules in view.
The demo needs no money and pays nothing. The real game needs an account and you must be 18 or older.
Real money playA 7x7 grid gives no way to know when the bonus round comes. Whether 4, 5 or 6 BONUS chests land in a session is not known before the first spin, and the frequency is not known either. The result of one session is random, whatever RTP version runs.
Two RTP versions exist for Chicken Drop, and the game rules show which one runs on this site. The rules panel in the game is where to check it before the first spin. Each version has its own RTP, so the same bet can return a different share over time.
A top win of x5,000 the bet is the ceiling of Chicken Drop, and it is reached very rarely. No session can be planned toward it, because the outcome of each spin is random. Read it as a limit on the top prize, not as a target for any play.
Quick checks
At Bonsai Casino, each answer gives the figure first, so you can check it before you bet.
Four, five or six BONUS chest symbols anywhere on the 7x7 grid start the Free Spins round, with 10, 15 or 20 spins. Three or more BONUS symbols during the round add 5 spins each time, with no limit. Size and multiplier upgrades last the whole round.
Buy Free Spins costs 100 times the current total bet, which is A$40 at the A$0.40 example top bet. The feature triggers instantly, and the number of BONUS symbols, 4, 5 or 6, is randomised at purchase, giving 10, 15 or 20 spins.
The paytable is set at A$0.20, the lowest bet, so every payout can be read at the smallest stake before you commit more. Each round runs on the 7x7 grid, and the Tumble Feature follows every win.
Chicken Drop comes in two RTP versions, 96.50% and 96.53%. On A$100 staked, that means an expected return of A$96.50 or A$96.53 over a very long run, not in any single session. The volatility is high, so results vary widely.
Players must be 18+. Call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or self-exclude through BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
