How to Play Chicken Coin
Five steps from a first spin to the 1,000x Grand. The fruit reels are simple; the part worth understanding is the round behind them.
Each mechanic is taken apart properly in the Chicken Coin bonus features guide.
Set Your Bet
Stakes run from $0.10 to $200, and the whole bet covers all eight fixed lines automatically. Your stake also sets the size of the four jackpots, since Mini, Minor, Major and Grand are all quoted as multiples of the total bet — 25x, 50x, 150x and 1,000x.
Spin the Fruit Reels
The 3×4 grid fills with cherries, lemons, plums, oranges, watermelon, grapes, BAR, Bells and the 777 Wild, paying left to right. Three 777s is the biggest line hit at 30x total bet. This layer is a plain fruit machine and it is not where the game's money is.
Open the Hold & Win
You need Bonus Coins on reels 1 and 3 in the same spin, with a Chicken Coin or a Super Chicken Coin on reel 2. All three parts are required — two out of three is just another spin. Once it opens, coins hold their places on the grid with cash values printed on them.
Let the Features Fire
Inside the round, a Chicken Coin landing with Bonus Coins triggers the Collect Feature, which reads every visible coin and pays the lot as one win. Super Chicken Coins set off the Chicken Boost — a 2x to 10x multiplier, a jackpot award, or extra coins. Pile of Gold can drop more coins on the board at random.
Collect, or Buy Your Way In
The Grand jackpot pays 1,000x the total bet and comes from the Chicken Boost resolving as a jackpot award — not from filling the grid or from any purchase. If you would rather not wait for the trigger, Buy Bonus is offered at 75x, 200x and 300x your stake. Set a budget you can lose without minding.
Symbol Paytable
Nine symbols, three to a line, paid as multiples of your total bet. The 777 Wild both pays the most and substitutes for the others.
| Symbol | 3 of a kind |
|---|---|
| 7️⃣ 777 Wild | 30x |
| 🔔 Bells | 20x |
| 🅱️ BAR | 15x |
| 🍉 Watermelon | 8x |
| 🍇 Grapes | 8x |
| 🍊 Orange | 2x |
| 🍋 Lemon | 2x |
| 🟣 Plum | 2x |
| 🍒 Cherry | 1x |
Payouts are multiples of the total bet. The Chicken, Super Chicken and Bonus Coins carry cash values instead of a fixed line payout — they belong to the Hold & Win round, not the paytable above.
What Each Feature Does
The short version of the four mechanics inside the bonus round. Triggers and strategy go deeper on the bonus features page.
Hold & Win Bonus
Opens when Bonus Coins land on reels 1 and 3 with a Chicken Coin or Super Chicken Coin on reel 2. Coins hold their positions and their cash values while fresh ones keep the round going.
Collect Feature
A Chicken Coin or Super Chicken Coin landing with Bonus Coins sweeps the whole grid — every visible coin has its displayed amount converted into one payout for that spin.
Chicken Boost
Fires when Super Chicken Coins land, and resolves as one of three things: a random multiplier of 2x, 3x, 5x, 7x or 10x, a jackpot award, or extra bonus coins added to the grid.
Pile of Gold
A Bonus Coin can set this off at random, dropping additional Bonus, Chicken or Super Chicken Coins onto the board. More coins means more for the Collect Feature to sweep up.
Quick Strategy Tips
Know what the base game is for. Three 777s pay 30x total bet and cherries pay 1x. Those eight lines are not going to make your session; they exist to slow the bleed while you wait for Bonus Coins to land on reels 1 and 3 with a coin on reel 2. Budget with that in mind rather than expecting the reels to carry you.
Check the number in the info panel. InOut publishes 96.5% for Chicken Coin, but operators are sometimes supplied with alternative builds. It takes one tap to confirm, and it is the only figure that applies to your money.
Buy for time, not for the jackpot. The three Buy Bonus tiers at 75x, 200x and 300x sell you entry to the round. They do not sell you a Super Chicken Coin, and the Grand only arrives when the Chicken Boost resolves as a jackpot award. InOut says the top tier raises volatility — that is what the extra 225x is buying.
A crowded board is the whole game. Collect pays the sum of every coin visible when it fires, so anything that adds coins — Pile of Gold especially — is worth more than it looks. It also means an identical feature can pay a pittance or a lot depending purely on what was already on the grid.

Spin the fruit reels and sit through a Hold & Win round on play credits first. It costs nothing and the pacing is hard to picture from a description.
