Summary
Something terrible has happened: the normally peaceful countryside has been overrun by a horde of malevolent chickens! This is the premise of the latest GBA offering from Zoo Digital, and it’s a simple but fun little game. A gameplay mechanic reminiscent of the great Operation Wolf, with a decidedly more cartoonish and amusing twist.
Look out over the colourful and eye-pleasing landscapes as you hunt for the pesky peckers. You’ll need a quick trigger finger but it takes no time at all to get to grips with the controls of this title and you may find that blasting the squawking fowl from the air is a diverting and effective stress buster. There are five levels to play but the possibilities are in fact endless as the game has a mode which allows you to design your own levels and set your own challenges. The method of dispatching the cheeky chicks is also down to you – you can use shotgun, pistol or bomb in your pursuit of the heinous hens. And the controls are so intuitive that you’ll find everyone can enjoy themselves playing within seconds of picking up the Game Boy. If you have a particular dislike for poultry, or are looking for any game that’s fun to play and doesn’t take itself too seriously, then this is worth a gander.
