Chicken Drop - Cawino Casino's high-volatility cluster game from Pragmatic Play
Pragmatic Play's 7x7 cluster pays slot with tumble wins, free spins retriggered without limit, and a 96.50% RTP on standard plays.
Cluster pays on a 7x7 farm grid
Chicken Drop runs on cluster pays. Chicken Drop is a farm-themed cluster pays slot built on a 7x7 grid. Pragmatic Play released it in 2021 with high volatility, meaning wins come less often and can be much bigger. Matching symbols pay when they connect horizontally or vertically in groups of at least five. The grid refreshes after each win through the Tumble feature, stacking new symbols in place of those that paid. Free Spins, Symbol Transform and Progressive Multiplier round out the mechanics.
Patient stakes versus quick rewards. High volatility suits players who can stake steadily through longer spells without wins, chasing substantial payouts when a cluster forms. The 7x7 grid and cluster mechanic reward patient play. You can bet from A$0.20 to A$240 per spin, so both cautious stakers and confident players find a level. Players seeking frequent small wins or those with a tight session budget might find the gaps between wins frustrating.
Watch multipliers grow in Free Spins. Free Spins shape each session most deeply. Land four, five or six BONUS symbols anywhere to trigger 10, 15 or 20 spins. During the round, size and multiplier upgrades persist across all spins instead of resetting, and you are guaranteed at least one egg drop every spin. Retriggering happens when three or more BONUS symbols land again, adding five spins with no upper limit. This mode can build multipliers into the thousands.

How do BONUS symbols work? Land 4, 5 or 6 BONUS symbols anywhere on the grid to trigger 10, 15 or 20 Free Spins. During the round, every 3 or more BONUS symbols add 5 more spins with no limit. Multipliers and sizes lock in across all spins instead of resetting each time, and at least one egg drop happens every spin.
Instant trigger versus waiting for symbols. Purchase Free Spins for A$200 at your current bet to start the bonus round immediately. The number of BONUS symbols that appear—4, 5 or 6—is randomised at the moment you buy, determining whether you get 10, 15 or 20 spins.
Clusters and cascades between bonuses. In the base game, 7x7 fixed grid uses cluster pays: 5 or more matching symbols connected horizontally or vertically win. After every win, the Tumble Feature removes paid clusters and drops remaining symbols to create cascading wins.

Jump straight to bonus spins

What cannot be known in advance about Chicken Drop
The bonus round timing. The bonus round arrives when matching symbols land, not on any schedule you can predict. Spins may go many rounds without triggering a single free spin.
One session is always random. Your result in any single session is random. The RTP of 96.50% applies over many thousands of spins across many players, never to one sitting.
The maximum win versus reality. The maximum win of A$1,200,000 is a ceiling built into the game. Reaching it happens so rarely that it should never figure in your planning.

How to stay in control
Before and after the budget. Choose how much you can afford to lose before your first spin. Setting a budget from the start helps you play within your means and avoid chasing losses as the session continues.
Planning your exit point. Decide when you will stop before you begin playing, not just when losing but also after wins. Your stopping point keeps you focused on the limit you set, even when the multipliers climb.
From unlimited to in control. Use deposit and loss limits on your account to cap what you can spend across all games. These built-in tools give you a safety net that works automatically, every time you play.
When the game changes. Take a break or use self-exclusion if Chicken Drop or any game stops being fun and starts feeling like a need. Support is available through Gambling Help Online, Lifeline Australia and BetStop.
