Rich Little Hens: Rule The Roost Slot by Light & Wonder

The white hen in the middle wears the crown - she's the queen, flanked by a brown hen and a purple hen who feed three separate meters above the reels. That triple-hen panel is the entire control system. Brown tracks pending free spins, white tracks jackpot picks, purple tracks a wild multiplier, and which one fills up depends on which colour coin shows up when the bonus triggers.

Coins land via Mystery Reveal. Every spin in base, mystery tiles flip into a regular symbol - royal court characters like the Queen Hen, King Hen and Knight Hen at the top end, then Crown, Trumpet, and the usual A-through-10 royals - and some of those reveals stack a Red, Silver or Purple coin overlay on top. Non-triggering coins still do work: red ones bank +1 free spin into the brown meter (caps at 100), silver ones drop 0.25x to 6.75x of your stake onto the lower jackpot meters, purple ones nudge the wild multiplier up by 1 (caps at 7x). The meters carry between spins on your current bet option, so the trigger you eventually catch is worth whatever you've stockpiled.

When any coin combo finally hits and triggers free spins, the colour decides which variant runs. Red gives you the brown hen's stored count (or 7 if it triggers solo). Silver runs a six-tier jackpot picker where mystery symbols can reveal a jackpot tile and fill that tier's slots - 2 spots for MINI and MINOR, 3 for MAXI, 4 for MAJOR, 5 for GRAND, 6 for MEGA. Purple swaps in a special wild on reels 2-4 only, and every win using a wild gets multiplied by the stored Purple Hen value. No coins drop during free spins, so whatever meter you cashed in is what you play out.

The jackpot ladder is the headline number and it's specific to this skin. At $1 stake: MINI $0.50, MINOR $1.50, MAXI $2.00, MAJOR $3.50, GRAND $150, MEGA $2,500. The MEGA is the 2,500x ceiling and scales with bet - smaller than other entries in the Light & Wonder Rich Little Hens family, which is honest information if you're shopping between the siblings.

The reel area sits on a green felt backdrop with stacks of gold coins piled high on either side like the hens are nesting on a fortune. There's no buy option here - you wait for the coins to come to you, which fits a game built around three meters slowly filling.
