Chicken Run is a 2000 platformer game developed by Blitz Games and published by Activision.
The console and PC versions of Chicken Run are 3D stealth-platform game, featuring similar elements to games like Metal Gear Solid. Gameplay generally consists of the player taking control of either Ginger, Rocky, or Nick and Fetcher, and searching the Tweedys' farm for objects to be used in an escape attempt by the chickens. As the player will have to avoid guard dogs and the Tweedys themselves, in addition to searchlights, sources of light in general and noisy surfaces, since these will alert the security to the player's presence.
Been caught, they are sent back to the entry point of the current area, and lose either their most recently obtained item or their currently equipped item which goes back to where it was found. In addition, the player occasionally have to push objects about, or use the environment to get to a hard-to-reach item.
The game is divided into 3 acts; each act ends with a boss level. In Act 1, the chickens have to control a mannequin of Mrs Tweedy. The Act 2 boss is a linear platforming level where Rocky has to avoid hazards to get to Ginger in the pie machine. The same act contain minigames representing an escape attempt, which in Act 2 involves launching chickens over the fence with a seesaw, catapult or fireworks. In the Act 3 boss the chickens fly the 'Old Crate' and have to stop Mrs. Tweedy from reaching the top of the rope hanging from it. The minigames involve assembling a part of the 'Old Crate' and getting its engine running. Act 3 contains a minigame in which the player has to get the hens in Hut 2 to lay eggs to pay Nick and Fetcher though this can also be played in the first two acts but without the player getting to keep the eggs.
In keeping with the film's story, the game takes place on an English chicken farm and follows a group of chickens as they try to break out of confinement.
Players must help Ginger and her flock make a break for freedom, while avoiding the evil Mrs. Tweedy and her oafish husband Mr. Tweedy, who wants to turn them into chicken pies.
Chicken Run is abandonware and no longer sold or supported by its publishers. Files are archived here for these platforms:
I recommend everyone here to install a PS1 emulator to run the PS1 version of this game, because the PC version doesnt work. You can look up for emulators like (duckstation, epsxe, etc).
