Year of the Rooster Demo Slot - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Wake up to the rooster

The Rooster is one of 12 yearly symbols and to the Chinese, it is the epitome of fidelity and punctuality. The reason is clear, even to us in the West, as before alarm clocks, the crowing of the rooster alerted us to daybreak. The rooster is also lucky through its association with the chicken. In Chinese lore, the chicken exorcises evil spirits and protects family shrines.

What a cracker

The symbols in this Genesis Gaming slot include 6 basic and 4 specific symbols, plus scatters and wilds. The 6 playing card symbols don’t award too much in the way of cash prizes, but the wins leap up for the specific Rooster game prizes. The bamboo, firecrackers, red envelopes and the rooster all pay out very decent wins.

Stacked roosters

The scatter is the biggest paying symbol in the game, but seeing as this game offers 243 ways to win, almost every shape imaginable is a payline. The scatter is “Rooster” written in Chinese, but you don’t need to read Chinese to get the cash prizes and free spins. The scatter awards free spins when you find 3, 4 or 5 of them anywhere on the reels, paying out 8, 15 and 20 free spins respectively.

During the free spin feature, the Wilds, which are shown as a golden coin, reveal a multiplier of 2 or 3 times the value. Where the money really goes up is when you have more than 1 wild. In this game, the wilds are multiplied by each other, meaning you can win a multiplier of up to 27 times the prize. In an extra nice bonus, if you make a combination win without a wild while there is a wild on the screen, you’ll still get the multiplier.

Animated wins

This game looks very simple, but the animation is still there. Get the firecracker combination and watch them explode, and the lantern on the side of the screen flickers whenever the special Rooster symbol shows up. The music is also rather mellow, but the sound effects complement it perfectly and it’s ideal for mobile and tablet play.

The rooster personality

Those born during the Year of the Rooster are renowned for their honesty, intelligence, communicativeness and ambitious nature. They are said to be pretty, or handsome if a boy, and they are also said to be a bit vain. They are, like the Rooster, the center of attention and can be a little bossy, but they have everyone’s best interests at heart. So this seems to fit this game very well.

The wins don’t come quickly, but they do deliver and it’s a beautiful game to play. Quicker thrills can be found in many of our other slots games.
