Chicken Fox Jr slot review

Chicken Fox Jr is a farmyard slot from Lightning Box, released in May 2022 and listed in our lobby as Chicken Fox Junior. It plays on five reels and three rows with 20 paylines, and Lightning Box describes it as a prequel to its 2019 game Chicken Fox. The highlight is the Chicken Catch Bonus, where foxes collect the prize tags on chickens and gather eggs for extra free games.

How Chicken Fox Jr plays

Wins pay from the leftmost reel to the right along 20 fixed paylines. The Lady symbol is the wild, standing in for everything except the Gold Egg scatter, and she appears only in the base game. Tractor, Pig and Goat symbols carry the larger line pays, while A, K, Q, J and 10 fill the lower end of the paytable.

Any base-game spin can bring the Fox Junior Bonus. A fox walks on and sends an arrow at the reels, turning the targeted A, K, Q, J or 10 symbols into Lady, Pig, Goat or Tractor symbols, and the spin is paid only after he has finished. If the fox pops a balloon, an extra Gold Egg is added, which can be enough to start the free games.

The Chicken Catch Bonus

Three, four or five Gold Eggs award 8, 15 or 30 free games. Once the round starts, the regular symbols are swapped for chickens wearing prize tags and White Eggs, and two wild foxes join them: the standard Fox and Fox2.

Nothing is collected unless a fox lands. When one does, it catches the chickens in view and adds their prize tags to your win, and any White Egg it reaches adds more free games to the round. Fox2 carries a 2x multiplier, so the line wins and catches it takes part in are doubled.
