About
MEET THE CHICKEN POLICE Sonny Featherland and Marty MacChicken were once a legendary detective-duo, called the Chicken Police. But that was almost a decade ago, and time had ruthlessly passed them by. Now Sonny and Marty are forced to work together on a case that is weirder than anything they've ever encountered before! NARRATIVE-DRIVEN, DETECTIVE GAMEPLAY Chicken Police is a story-rich and dialogue-heavy game combining elements of the visual novels and classic adventure games. The game has more than 30 characters to talk to, with some having to be seriously interrogated. Collect tons of clues, evidence, and highly sensitive personal information from the shady characters of Clawville to use ruthlessly against them! EXPLORE THE CITY OF CLAWVILLE (again, and again...) There are more than 30 places to visit and some of them will change several times during the story. You can return to previous locations on several occasions, to find hidden secrets, meet new characters and gather information about the world and its inhabitants. A CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE Chicken Police has a weirdly stunning visual style made with the usage of real photos and photo-realistic 3D backgrounds, inspired by classic film-noir movies and influenced by animated features. Its noir mood is enhanced by an original music soundtrack, backed up by professional voice acting for all characters with more than 8 hours of spoken dialogue! Chicken Police is a satire, which recalls the mood and atmosphere of the 40's film-noir movies, and as the best noirs and hardboiled detective stories, it's so gritty and hopeless, that it can only be served with a lot of cynical humor.

Really fantastic game. The story is really engaging and interesting. The characters are wonderful and well written. The atmosphere and style are awesome. It's just a really great visual novel. My only complaint is that it's basically impossible to 100% in a single playthrough without a guide, and you can't go back into an existing file to find what you missed. You have to start all over. I loved the game, but that's a bit much. I want to know everything I missed, but not that badly.

Very well made. Although it's a pretty basic game and not very challenging, the great graphics and thoroughly amusing storyline make it worth a play. Don't know how much the game usually costs, but it's free with Play Pass, which is only 5 bucks a month, and you can easily complete the entire game in that amount of time.

Cool concept, but they definitely leaned in way too hard with the theme and not enough with the gameplay. I was clawing my eyes out just trying to move the story forward but there was just so much banter you have to wade through. I ended up uninstalling.

I actually played this on my Switch and not my phone, but it's a point and click story based detective adventure game, so I know the gameplay can't be all that different across platforms. This story is so SO very well written and the voice acting so excellent that I honestly cannot recommend it enough. If you only pay for one game on your phone, make it this one. I played it in one very long sitting because I just couldn't put it down.

Seemed like a really cool game, got as far as the telephone part, then the spin function just wouldn't allow me to select the right number to call, I could only get 2 fives in before it would freeze. Graphics are great, story and game function worked well...other than the phone. I've been searching for a game like this, just wished it worked for me.

Its really impressive for an adventure game. Your a chicken cop doing detective stuff. The intro is top notch and everything is way over the top for this kind of game. It might have bugs but its really a work of art and it would have a super high rating otherwise. Hopefully I dont run into the bugs that others are talking about. Im going to play it through and find out.

Clucking brilliant! Very engaging and creative, with a unique style. My only criticism is that some of the subtitles are dodgy, though I assume that English isn't the writer's first language. The characters are really great and I hope there'll be a sequel. :)

About halfway through, it bugged which wouldn't be such a big issue if there was a save feature and I could reload a previous save, but my only option now is to completely restart. eta: i did go back to try again and while the first issue didn't happen, it was bugged again, further into the game than the last time. Countless wasted hours. Absolute trash.

I did enjoy this game, however once I got to the point of needing to go to the Wessler residence because I didn't complete all options when talking to Lewis outside of the hotel I was not able to unlock the residence so I eventually got stuck, even tried visiting all of the available locations and talking to everybody but nothing would make the residence unlock. By this point, I didn't want to have to restart the game so I just uninstalled.. Hence 2star rating.

It ran well, it looks nice, it's cheap even at full price, it's voice acted, but by god it's scalding hot. The text and UI is well adapted. The zoom feature is questionable, but the game will give summary of each items/images with text pop-ups. The awful part is the temperature. You could cook chicken eggs in 20 min. There's no option to lower the resolution or fps cap. A shame really, as this is decent game otherwise. The dialogues felt off at times, but overall it still got that noir vibe.

Absolutlely amazing! Wasnt expecting much to be honest but boy did this surprise me! Suddenly im obsessed and caught up in a beautiful narration and an intriguing world. The writing is so well done and witty. Its difficult but not overly so. The characters are personable and relateable even with animal heads lol. Bravo to the developers, cant wait to see what else they come out with. Well done!
