A noir comedy where chickens play detective in a stylishly grimy city, it’s a short but vivid adventure that lingers long after the credits roll. Nearly all players call it engaging and recommend it, with over half logging at least 10 hours despite its compact length.

What it's about: Une folle histoire d'amour, de mort, de poulets et de rédemption ! Chicken Police est un jeu policier d'aventure qui se déroule dans un monde soigneusement élaboré. L'histoire est crue, mais ne manque pas d'une bonne dose d'humour absurde.

« Original, et bien pensé. C'est comme si L.A NOIRE avait fait un enfant avec BLACKSAD. Je le recommande pour les amoureux d'enquêtes, d'ambiance films noirs, et de poulets ! »
