Focus Gaming News spoke with Vigen Safaryan, Chief Product Officer at Galaxsys, about the inspiration, features and concept behind the company’s latest crash game, Chicken Crash.

Exclusive interview.- Galaxsys continues to strengthen its position in the fast and crash games segment, combining bold themes with dynamic mechanics that appeal to a broad range of players. Its latest release, Chicken Crash, pushes this approach even further, offering a lively, high-energy take on one of the industry’s most competitive genres.

To explore the creative process behind the game, its features, and how it fits into the studio’s roadmap for 2026, Focus Gaming News spoke with Vigen Safaryan, chief product officer at Galaxsys, who shared insights into the team’s vision and innovation strategy.

Chicken Crash introduces a fun and dynamic twist to the crash game genre. What was the main inspiration behind its concept and design?

The main idea behind Chicken Crash was to bring a fun and fresh feeling to the crash game genre. Checked-themed games are very popular right now, so we wanted to join that trend while making sure our version stood out with something unique.

Our team tried different concepts and gameplay ideas before deciding on the chicken-racing theme — it’s lighthearted, full of energy, and fits perfectly with the fast-paced crash mechanic. The idea of crossing roads came after testing several concepts, and once we chose it, we focused on animations and personality. The result is a funny, lively chicken character that makes the game much more dynamic and memorable.

What features do you believe make Chicken Crash stand out and keep players engaged compared to other fast or crash games in the market?

We didn’t want Chicken Crash to feel like every other crash game. We wanted it to be interactive, and built with features you rarely find in similar titles. While the market is already crowded with similar games, our Chicken Crash offers several clear advantages.

The Go Max feature lets players run to max multiplier on a single run, delivering high-risk, high-reward excitement rarely seen in competing games. The Multi-Step Betting option allows players to place bets across multiple steps, adding strategic control and engagement, while Left-Hand Mode ensures accessibility for all players, a rare feature in the crash genre. Operators also benefit from extensive customisation of gameplay, visuals, and betting mechanics. At the same time, intuitive step counts, interactive visuals, and engaging features make the game approachable, fun, and designed to encourage repeated play.

Looking ahead, how does Chicken Crash fit into Galaxsys’ broader strategy and 2026 roadmap for innovation and new game development?

Chicken Crash fits perfectly into Galaxsys’ long-term strategy to innovate across the fast and slot game segments by combining engaging gameplay mechanics with bold, distinctive themes and strong visual identity.

Our focus for 2026 is on expanding our portfolio with titles that can be easily adapted for different markets while maintaining our signature qualities. Titles like Chicken Crash strengthen our position as a creative and versatile studio capable of appealing to a wide range of audiences.

Overall, it’s a step forward in our mission to deliver games that are instantly recognisable and innovative — colourful, emotional, and fun, without compromising on performance or reliability for our partners.
