The Crossy Road online slot machine is a game developed by Big Blue Bubble Inc., a renowned Canadian video game development company. The game was first released in 2012 as a mobile-based, endless runner-type of game where players controlled a pedestrian character attempting to cross the road while avoiding obstacles such as cars and wildlife.
Crossy Road’s popularity has been phenomenal over the years, especially since its release on various platforms including PC, PlayStation consoles, and even Nintendo Switch. The slot machine variant was eventually introduced by Microgaming in 2019, bringing an exciting experience Crossy Road for slots enthusiasts who are familiar with the original game’s engaging gameplay mechanics.
Theme and Design
As its name suggests, the Crossy Road online slot has a theme centered around the concept of crossing roads while avoiding various obstacles. Upon opening the game, players will notice that the design takes after the classic version’s visuals, recreating an urban environment complete with pavement markings, streetlights, trees, grasslands, and many more recognizable elements from the original Crossy Road.
One notable feature is how the reels have been incorporated into a stylized grid resembling a road map. This gives players the sense of navigating through various traffic zones without disrupting their normal flow while slotting in winning combinations at all times.
Symbols
Upon closer inspection, we can identify five high-paying symbols (which are slightly animated) inspired from common urban landmarks found along roads:
- Police Station: represented by a blue and white police station building
- School Bus: depicted as an ordinary school bus with passengers inside
- Mailbox: symbolized using the standard mailbox icon seen near homes, complete with some colorful details like paint and decorations
The low-paying symbols resemble everyday objects but aren’t animated:
- Car wheels: two sets in different colors (black/green)
- Cars passing by on screen.
Payouts
To determine how Crossy Road slot payouts work, let us first examine its standard set of winning combinations which follow a common format where one higher-paying symbol must appear three times or more from left to right across adjacent reels at once in order for players to score an award:
- If we achieve 3-4 Mailboxes symbols side by side horizontally across the middle row and start counting towards either end within these conditions above stated, pay is equal $1 (for mailboxes only). Five or More Consecutive Mails wins bigger but lower rates compared again as per provided game sheet – here at approximately tenfold rate respectively higher though.
Wilds
The police station acts not just visually to remind users but works actively across the screen whenever there’s insufficient matching symbols left behind – any time you get 3+,4,5+ of them placed side-by-side on a winning combination earns player up their normal values by replacing every adjacent space with wild car for example (also called multiplier) until that end spin finishes off.
Scatters
Unfortunately no Scatters exist within this Slot as mentioned earlier however many others support bonus game entry method through separate activation features.
