If you like arcade shooter games, you may find this very fun and addictive. The options to play with a friend and upload high scores are nice additions to the game. There's solid arcade gameplay at the core, but the lack of options and repetitive nature may put off some players.
Overall, Chicken Invaders is a decent game with its positive and negative aspects. Playing with a friend (each of you controlling one ship) or working towards new high scores to upload can help offset the monotony, and people really into arcade shooters may not be bothered by the repetitive elements found in many such games.Ĭonclusion - It All Depends On How Much You Like Frying Chickens Over and Over. Having to repeatedly hit the Shift key to continuously fire only adds to the repetitiveness of the game. Additionally, the same ten waves repeat over and over as you progress in the game, only change in their difficulty. There are only three types of enemies/obstacles in the game (chicken invaders, asteroids, and bosses) that you deal with time and again. The biggest issue with Chicken Invaders is the repetitive nature of the game. The various simple sounds effects also play their part in bringing that feeling to the game, although they may get annoying after hearing them enough times. The portrayal of the enemy as chickens and the dropped drumsticks when they are destroyed keep the game a lighthearted affair. They also add a somewhat humorous or goofy element to the game. The visuals of Chicken Invaders is hardly cutting-edge, but is on par with other games in the same genre. It becomes tiring and repetitive to have to hit the same key over and over. Another problem with the controls is needing to hit Shift repeatedly to fire. It would have been nice to change the controls to something easier or more comfortable to use. One downside when it comes to the controls is the inability to change them. The controls are given to you before you begin the game, and simple enough for anyone to learn or use.
You fire with the Shift key, and shoot missiles with the Control key. The spaceship you control is moved left or right with the left and right arrow keys (or the A and D keys). Similar to the gameplay, the controls are fairly simple. You cannot adjust or change the difficulty settings in Chicken Invaders. There will be more chickens to eliminate, and more asteroids or eggs to dodge as you progress. Once you complete the ten waves, they start over from the beginning and become more difficult than before. The final wave contains a single large chicken invader, and is the boss encounter. Some waves have you destroying the chicken invaders (who are organized in different formations throughout), while others have you dodging deadly asteroids heading straight for you. There are ten different waves you face in Chicken Invaders. You repeat your actions on wave after wave until you finally lose all three lives and the game ends. When destroyed, the chickens drop a drumstick you can collect for bonus points, or a present that will award you powerups and points. If you get hit by an egg, you lose one of your three lives. However, you'll have to be quick and alert to dodge the eggs they drop. The enemies sit at the top of the screen, and its your job to eliminate them. You control a spaceship at the bottom of the screen that can be moved left or right.
The gameplay at the heart of Chicken Invaders is very similar to other arcade shooters. Goofy graphics and sounds add an interesting touch to the good arcade gameplay.
You can face the task alone or play with a friend. You'll take on increasingly difficult waves of chickens and asteroids that threaten to destroy Earth. Chickens are invading Earth and it's your job to pilot a spaceship to take them out and save the world. Chicken Invaders is a strange new twist on the classic Space Invaders style arcade game.
