Silly little game in which you're a cock that conceives eggs with his chicken,
protects them until the chicks are born, pecks all sorts of hungry animals
trying to sneak in, and eats worms.
What more could you ask for.
Anyway, it's an old style arcade game, nicely done and greatly playable.

Cute graphics busywork game with frustrating ladder detection that gets in the way of our hero cock.
Fails to rule the roost.

One of the funniest games I've ever played.
The object of the game is to help the cockerel grow his chicken family.
He must first breed the eggs along with his wife in a "private" place within the hennery and then protect his them against enemies like snakes, hedgehogs, stoats, foxes and rats until they hatch and return to their mother.
You have to keep at least one egg in the hen house otherwise your chicken wife will be very crossed with you for not performing your "manly duties".
And so you must keep them coming (no pun intended) so the family keeps growing.
This obviously takes energy and if you work too hard your stamina will run dry, and you will slow down until you drop dead.
So it is crucial to catch every worm available whenever they pop their heads out.
The object of the game is to score as many points as you can and keep them eggs coming (again no pun intended).
Personally I don't like games just for scoring, but Chikin Chase is an exception and after all this years I still find myself spending hours (yes, hours) playing it. A simple yet beautiful, funny and highly addictive game.
