The Crossy Road casino slot is a 5-reel online video game developed by Yodo1 Games and published by Farsal Interactive Limited. Released in 2012, it has since become one of the most popular slots among players worldwide. The theme and design have contributed to its success.

Theme and Design

The Crossy Road slot revolves around an arcade-style theme that is reminiscent Crossy Road of classic games from the early days of computer gaming. Players are transported into a colorful world where they can collect characters, animals, and other items as they navigate through roads filled with hazards such as cars, bicycles, and obstacles.

Each reel has 4 rows and 3 symbols per row, making it an unusual setup for slot games but visually appealing nonetheless. The background is simple yet vibrant, featuring a sunset landscape that changes colors during gameplay to match the changing mood of the game.

The design elements are well-organized, with clear labels on each symbol depicting road signs, traffic cones, and other obstacles encountered while trying to cross roads in real life. There’s an energetic atmosphere at play here – fitting for what is essentially a casino slot that lets you win big by matching specific symbols.

Symbols

There are several types of symbols featured in Crossy Road. These include:

  • Regular Symbols: Animals (frog, turtle, chicken), pedestrians (a group and two individual characters) and traffic signs
  • Scatters: A cat sleeping in the middle of a road, which has no effect on game features but serves as an indicator for bonus rounds
  • Bonus Feature: Crossing Over is not among them; instead we have Frog and Turtle symbols acting like Wild

The frog and turtle wilds can substitute for any regular symbol in creating winning combinations. Wins are paid based on their position.

High Paying Symbols

There aren’t really many, as most of the high-paying ones come from bonus features described later on below.

Bonus Feature: Crossing Over!

Players don’t choose which side they want; instead it seems almost like each spin is its own game (one would guess this is to encourage additional play). This ‘game’ feature rewards participants by letting them double their winnings when a set amount of symbols align at the very top row on all reels.
