A 7x7 grid under a farm theme is the home of Chicken Drop, a cluster pays video slot. A win forms when at least five matching symbols touch horizontally or vertically. Every win sets off the Tumble Feature, where the winning symbols clear and fresh ones fall in, so one spin can chain several wins. Four, five or six BONUS chests landing anywhere on the grid start the Free Spins round.
Seven features, including Progressive Multiplier and Symbol Transform, shape each round. Free Spins upgrades keep their size and multiplier for the whole round instead of resetting each spin. Three or more BONUS symbols during the round add five spins, with no limit on retriggers. Buy Free Spins starts the round straight away at 100 times the total bet.
100x the current total bet buys the round instantly, so at an A$1 bet the price is A$100.

A$100 staked on Chicken Drop sets the basis for the return to player figures. Over many rounds it pays back its version's share, though single sessions swing widely. The game rules show which version runs.

Chicken Drop guide
Sportybet Casino explains each step, so you know the rules before you place a bet.
From A$0.20 up to A$240, you choose the stake for each round before the first spin, and the example bets on this page run from A$0.40 to A$1.
Five is the fewest matching symbols that pay on the 7x7 grid, joined horizontally or vertically. After every win the tumble feature runs, so the grid refills for the next cluster.
Seven named features make up this slot. Cluster Pays and Tumble run on every base game win, and the other five are Free Spins, Progressive Multiplier, Retrigger, Scatter and Symbol Transform.
Four, five or six BONUS chest symbols anywhere on the grid start the Free Spins round with 10, 15 or 20 spins.
A$0.20 is the smallest stake and A$240 the largest, so set a loss limit before the first spin. No one can know in advance how a session will end.
When the chest lands
Settles how the bonus starts, what the free spins bring and what the buy costs.
4, 5 or 6 BONUS chests anywhere on the grid start the round with 10, 15 or 20 Free Spins. Three or more chests during the round add 5 spins, with no limit. Size and multiplier upgrades last the round, and each free spin drops at least one egg.
Base game reelsFree Spins round
100x the current total bet buys an instant Free Spins round. Whether 4, 5 or 6 BONUS symbols land, giving 10, 15 or 20 spins, is randomised at the moment of purchase. There is no wait for chests to land first.
Current total betInstant Free Spins
A 7x7 grid stays fixed throughout the base game. Five or more matching symbols connected horizontally or vertically form a cluster that pays. After every win the Tumble Feature runs again.

Practice round
Useful before your first real stake, when you want to see how the 7x7 grid behaves.
A$0.20 is the smallest real bet, but the demo needs no money and pays nothing. The real game needs a Sportybet Casino account and a player aged 18+.
Play nowThe 7x7 grid of Chicken Drop does not show when the next BONUS chest will land, and nobody can predict it. How often the Free Spins round comes is not known in advance. The result of one session is random, and the RTP version only sets the return over a very long run.
Two RTP versions of Chicken Drop exist, and the game rules are the only place that names the version in play. Read that section before your first spin. The version sets the long-run return across many rounds, and it says nothing about what one session will pay.
Up to x5,000 your stake is the highest win Chicken Drop can pay, and the ceiling is reached very rarely. A ceiling shows the largest possible payout, not the usual outcome. No bet size or pattern of play changes how seldom it is reached, so read the figure once and then choose your stake on other grounds.
Before the first reel
Sportybet Casino sets out each figure plainly so you can judge the game before staking.
4, 5 or 6 BONUS chest symbols anywhere on the grid trigger the Free Spins round. 4 symbols give 10 spins, 5 give 15 and 6 give 20. Symbols count wherever they land on the grid.
Chicken Drop can be played from A$0.20, so a first session stays small while you learn the 7x7 grid. Wins are paid by clusters of at least 5 connected symbols, so a small stake still shows the mechanics.
96.50 and 96.53 are the two RTP versions of Chicken Drop. The figure is the long-run return on money staked, not a promise for one session. Over very large numbers of spins the higher version returns more on average, but no single session follows the average.
100x the current total bet buys the Free Spins round instantly. The round gives 10, 15 or 20 spins, a count that is randomised at the moment you buy. One purchase costs A$100 at the A$1 top bet.
A$0.20 is the lowest bet on Chicken Drop, and A$240 the highest allowed here. The tables on this page use A$0.40 and A$1 as examples, not as limits. Your bet changes every money figure on the page.
x5,000 is the maximum win on Chicken Drop, measured as a multiple of the bet. Its volatility is high, so results can swing widely from spin to spin, and no session can be predicted in advance. At the A$1 top bet that is A$5,000.
18+ only. Support is available on 1800 858 858 from the National Gambling Helpline, and you can exclude yourself through BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Set a session budget before the first spin, and stop once it is spent, even when each bet looks small at A$0.20.
Decide your stopping point before the first spin, and keep to it after a win as well, because a big win does not promise another.
Use the deposit and loss limits in your account before you open Chicken Drop, so the cap is set before the reels start.
When the game stops feeling like fun, pause and step away; a break costs nothing and the game will still be there.
