Introduction
The Crossy Road slot machine is a video slot developed by Yggdrasil Gaming, based on the popular mobile game of the same name. The original Crossy Road game was launched in 2014 and became an instant hit due to its colorful graphics, catchy music, and addictive gameplay. The slot Crossy Road demo machine adaptation maintains many of these elements while introducing new features tailored for online players.
Theme
The theme of Crossy Road is centered around a classic arcade-style atmosphere with vibrant colors and pixelated graphics reminiscent of old video games from the 8-bit era. Players are transported to a virtual world filled with cartoonish characters, buildings, and vehicles moving across the screen in sync with the game’s background music.
Design
The Crossy Road slot features a standard 5×3 grid layout with 30 paylines, an RTP of 96.07%, and medium-high volatility level. Symbols on the reels include various animals (chickens, birds, cats, dogs), cars, bicycles, buildings, trees, and the game’s logo, all designed to fit the pixelated aesthetic.
Symbols
The low-paying symbols consist of standard lettered tiles with values ranging from 0.20 to 2x the bet per spin for combinations involving three or more identical letters in succession (A, C, E, H, I). The high-paying symbols include specific animals and vehicles such as a bird ($4-$8), cat ($6-$12), dog ($10-$20), car ($15-$30), bike ($25-$50), buildings like the house or tree ($40-$80) per combination.
Payouts
Wins are calculated according to standard slot machine rules where consecutive left-to-right symbol combinations pay from highest value (top-left reel) towards lowest on each active line. Combinations of three, four, and five high-paying symbols offer multipliers up to 50x the bet amount for maximum reward.
Wild Symbols
A pixelated wild game logo acts as a substitute for any standard or letter tile except scatters when appearing in combination with at least one low-paying symbol. However, there are conditions that limit its use:
- The game’s icon will not replace other icons during the Re-Run Bonus feature.
- It only helps create winning combinations involving three to five identical symbols among low-value letters (A-H).
Scatter Symbols
Two scatter symbols depicted as ‘Exit’ signs, when appearing anywhere in view both at once without any win condition applied initially might trigger instant wins ranging between $0-$250 along with one additional Free Spin after every successful match made of three consecutive Exit sign tiles.
