Chicken Chase

About

Chicken Chase is a quirky indie strategy game set in a chaotic poultry pen. Players navigate a virtual farmyard chasing chickens that scatter when approached. Each time a chicken escapes, it lays an egg that hatches into a new chick. The goal is to guide them all to a safe zone before the coop overflows. Controls are simple but rely on precise movement, with the VR setup adding a layer of physical interaction. Progress feels repetitive but oddly soothing as the flock grows and scatters. The game's standout is its niche concept, VR chicken herding is rare enough to be memorable. A 7.4/10 average on Metacritic reflects mixed reactions, with some calling it "funny and frantic" while others found it "too short and shallow." The charm lies in the absurdity of the situation and the satisfaction of corralling the last stubborn fowl. It’s not deep but works best as a lighthearted distraction, offering about 45 minutes of escalating poultry pandemonium.
