The Roobet chicken game and everything else you can play

Mission Uncrossable — what the chicken game actually is
If you have seen a clip of a pixel chicken hopping across a busy road while a number ticks upward, you have met Mission Uncrossable — Roobet's take on the "crossy road" arcade format, rebuilt as a cash game. A chicken starts on the kerb, with lane after lane of traffic ahead. Every lane you clear pushes your multiplier higher, and you pick the exact moment to stop and bank it.
The catch is the traffic. Move too greedily and a car flattens the chicken, ending the round and taking the stake with it. So the whole game is one tightening question: push for a bigger multiplier, or grab what you have? No reels, no paylines, no bonus rounds — just you, a chicken and a decision you make several times a minute.
It sits on the Roobet Originals shelf next to Crash, Mines and Plinko — a house-built title rather than a third-party pokie. The odds are set and published by Roobet, and the game is provably fair, so each round comes from a seed you can check afterwards rather than a black box you have to trust.

Play at RoobetHow to play Mission Uncrossable, step by step
The controls take about ten seconds to learn. Here is the run of play from a standing start — the same whether you are on a laptop in Wellington or a phone in Auckland.
There is also an auto mode. You pre-set a target — a multiplier or a number of lanes — and the game runs and cashes out for you, the decision made before your pulse gets involved. Manual gives you full control and a bigger adrenaline hit; auto keeps you disciplined. Most players drift between the two.
The four difficulty modes compared
Difficulty is not just cosmetic. It changes the starting multiplier, how quickly cars appear, and how far the ceiling sits. Easy is a gentle stroll where the chicken almost always survives the first lanes; Daredevil is a knife-edge where one early lane can end you. Here is the shape of each, to match the mode to your appetite for risk.
| Mode | Starting multiplier feel | Traffic & risk | Max potential |
|---|---|---|---|
| Easy | Low and gradual — small steps up per lane | Light traffic, long survivable runs | Modest, but the most consistent hit rate |
| Medium | Moderate — multipliers build a little faster | Busier lanes, a fair few early losses | Healthy mid-range wins if you push on |
| Hard | Punchy — each lane adds real value | Dense traffic, short average runs | Large multipliers for the brave |
| Daredevil | Steep — big jumps from the very first lane | Heaviest traffic, frequent instant losses | The route toward the top-end cap |
A fair way to think about it: Easy pays often but rarely pays big, and Daredevil almost never pays but occasionally pays enormously. Medium and Hard live in between. Newcomers usually have more fun starting low. There is no "correct" pick — only the one that suits your bankroll and your nerve.
RTP, volatility and some honest tips
Mission Uncrossable publishes an RTP in the region of 96 to 98 percent, competitive for a game of this type. But read that number honestly. An RTP near 97 percent still means a house edge of a few percent, and that edge is real — it does not switch off on a hot streak or because you have a system. Over enough rounds the maths favours the house, and anyone promising a guaranteed win is selling you something.
Volatility rises sharply with difficulty. On Easy the outcomes bunch close together, so your balance moves in small ripples. On Daredevil the swings are violent — long droughts broken by the odd spike. A few tips that actually help, rather than the usual myths:
None of that changes the underlying odds — it just keeps the game fun. Roobet gives you session tools and limits in your account, and there is local help in the footer if play stops feeling like play.

Play at RoobetThe other Roobet Originals
The chicken is the headline act, but the Originals shelf runs about nine house games, all sharing that "cash out when you like" DNA. If you enjoy Mission Uncrossable, these are the next stops.
Because they are house-built and provably fair, every one lets you verify the outcome after the fact. That transparency is a big part of why crypto players gravitate to Originals over standard slots.
The pokies library — 5,000-plus titles
Step off the Originals shelf and Roobet becomes an enormous pokies floor — more than 5,000 titles from over 70 studios, far more than any player will get through. Kiwi favourites sit front and centre, from the Pragmatic Play tumble games to the Hacksaw bonus-buy hits and the Push Gaming grinders, alongside jackpot slots and Megaways. A snapshot of covers you will spot on the lobby:
Gates of Olympus
Sweet Bonanza
Sugar Rush
Aviator
Crash Royale
Book of Dead
Starburst
Space XY
Wild CashEach pokie carries its own RTP and volatility in the game's info panel. If you like the crash-style rush of the chicken game but want reels, the Aviator and Space XY covers above scratch the same itch — a rising multiplier you have to time.
Live casino — real dealers, real time
When you want a human across the table, the live casino streams from Evolution, the studio most serious operators lean on. You get live blackjack, roulette, baccarat and game-show formats like Crazy Time and Lightning Roulette, dealt by a person on camera in HD. Chips go down on screen and payouts settle to your crypto balance the moment the hand ends.
It is a different pace from the chicken game — slower, more social, closer to a night at SkyCity than an arcade. For a lot of Kiwi players that variety is the point: a few fast Originals rounds, then a blackjack shoe to wind down. Live tables carry their own limits, so check the minimums first.
Who makes the games — the providers
A games floor is only as good as its studios, and Roobet's list is strong. Pragmatic Play supplies the tumbling mega-hits and a chunk of the live tables. Hacksaw Gaming brings the punchy, high-volatility bonus-buy titles. Push Gaming, Nolimit City, Play'n GO and Relax Gaming round out the pokies, while Evolution owns the live dealer experience. The Originals, including Mission Uncrossable, are the exception — built in-house — and that mix keeps the brand distinct from a generic casino skin.
Playing on mobile in New Zealand
Here is the practical bit for Kiwis. There is no Roobet app to download from the Play Store or App Store, because the whole site is a mobile web app. Open Roobet in Chrome or Safari, tap add to home screen, and you get an icon that launches full-screen like a native app. The chicken game, pokies and live tables all play in a phone browser.
Funding works the same on mobile as on desktop: Roobet is crypto-only, so you top up with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, USDT, USDC, Solana, XRP or Dogecoin. New to crypto? Buy a little from an NZ exchange such as Easy Crypto using NZD, send it across, and you are playing in minutes. Balances show in USD-equivalent value, so keep the rough NZD rate in mind. The full walkthrough lives on the crypto casino page.
One honest note: there is no POLi button and no direct ANZ or ASB deposit, which surprises people expecting a normal cashier. Once the crypto step clicks, most Kiwi players find the payouts — usually landing in minutes after your identity check — well worth the small learning curve.
Frequently asked questions
The Roobet chicken game is officially named Mission Uncrossable — one of Roobet's own Originals, where a chicken crosses lanes of traffic and your multiplier grows with every safe lane until you cash out.
You set a stake, pick a difficulty, then move the chicken forward lane by lane. Each successful lane raises your multiplier. Cash out to keep the current amount — but if a car hits the chicken before you do, the bet is lost.
It runs at a published RTP of roughly 96 to 98 percent, varying by difficulty. That still leaves a house edge of a few percent, so no system turns it into a guaranteed win over the long run.
Easy, Medium, Hard and Daredevil. Easy has light traffic and gentle multipliers, while Daredevil throws dense traffic at you with much larger multipliers and a much higher chance of losing in the first lane or two.
The win is capped at up to one million dollars in USD-equivalent value. Reaching it needs a long string of safe lanes on the higher difficulties, which is extremely unlikely — treat it as a ceiling, not a target.
Yes. In auto mode you set a target multiplier or number of lanes in advance and the game cashes out for you — a simple way to stay disciplined and take the emotion out of the decision.
Alongside Mission Uncrossable, Roobet runs its own Crash, Mines, Plinko, Dice and Roulette, plus a few more house titles. They share the fast, cash-out-when-you-like feel and are all provably fair.
More than 5,000 titles from over 70 studios, including Pragmatic Play, Hacksaw Gaming and Push Gaming, with live dealer tables streamed by Evolution. Filtering by studio is the quickest way to navigate it.
Yes. There is no separate app to download in New Zealand. Roobet runs as a mobile web app you can add to your home screen, and the chicken game, pokies and live tables all play smoothly in a phone browser.
