The Theme
Crossy Road is a popular mobile game developed by Hipster Whale, which has since been adapted into an online casino slot machine. The theme of the game revolves around the idea of crossing roads while avoiding obstacles. In the original game, players navigate their character through various environments, collecting coins and other items while trying to reach their destination safely.
The adaptation into a casino slot Crossy Road is no different in terms of its theme. Players are transported to a colorful and vibrant world where they must cross roads filled with hazards such as trucks, bicycles, and pedestrians. The game’s symbols include the main character from the original game, as well as various road-related objects like cars, traffic lights, and crossing signals.
Design
The design of Crossy Road slot machine is visually appealing, maintaining the same level of detail and colorfulness found in the original mobile game. The background graphics are vibrant and immersive, with each spin revealing a new set of obstacles and challenges on the road ahead. The animations are smooth, making for an enjoyable experience.
One notable aspect of the design is the attention to detail regarding the symbols used throughout the game. Each character, object, or vehicle has been meticulously designed to match its real-life counterpart, adding a level of authenticity that immerses players in the world of Crossy Road.
Symbols
In terms of gameplay and payouts, the slot machine features an array of symbols based on characters from the original mobile game. These include various animals such as dogs, cats, birds, and even a cow or two. Each character has its own unique payout values when appearing in combination with other symbols.
Players will also come across road-related objects like traffic lights, crossing signals, bicycles, cars, buses, trucks, and even school zones. While these may not pay out much individually, they do contribute to the game’s overall aesthetic and set up new combinations for higher payouts.
Payouts
The payouts of Crossy Road are calculated based on a combination of symbols appearing anywhere across the reels in any direction – vertically or horizontally (not diagonally). The minimum payout is 1.25 times the bet, which can be achieved with at least one animal symbol landing alongside another character of matching color.
However, if three animals land next to each other in either row above or below them, a significant boost awaits: all animals appearing adjacent will have their payout values multiplied by 2x up to a whopping ten times multiplier on these symbols alone – giving room for considerable gains through such strategic combinations.
Wilds
While there are no traditional wild symbols like those found in other games where they can substitute any single icon with another one; Crossy Road does contain a ‘Highwayman’ symbol which serves as both Wild and Scatter – more details about the latter below.
As stated earlier, it acts much like many standard Wild Symbols do – offering substitution capabilities – so if anywhere on its designated slot appears two of those rare highwaymen (or less often than that), this feature can get quite exciting.
