The Mystic Rooster can see the grim future of the chicken race.

And in that future, YOU are the scientist!
Gently guide the chicken through a pit of obstacles and dangers, either to avoid them, or to see how effective they are. Try to keep the chicken alive as long as possible, or try to see in how many ways you can terminate it.
Check facts on the facts-list to show how good of a scientist you are!

  • Over 30 facts to check, with more coming soon
  • Diverse obstacles to overcome: circular saws, flame throwers, boots-on-a-stick and others
  • 10 power-ups to help you (slow time, corn magnet, indestructoid) or hinder you (confused controls, parasite worm, sausage, booze)
  • Now with 68% more chicken than our competitors
  • Get your place on the global highscores!

    I love this game; but I think the homing missile is very cheap and should be unlocked only after checkpoint 12 or so, it is pretty much impossible to beat a level once it is unlocked. I can’t wait for the full version so I can and actually support the developer. Keep up the great work!

    Hi LuiD,

    Thanks for the feedback. We configured the rocket launcher such that is has a very low probability of being unlocked, and thus is only unlocked at higher checkpoints.

    We did lots of balancing on the rocket launcher and this version is the most balanced we managed to come up with. We had versions in which the cannon would always align with your position, or some in which the rockets were moving slower, but with lower turn angles, but all were too difficult.
    Do you have any suggestions on improving it?

    I LOVE it! Shame it’s my husband’s phone and I have to keep stealing it because my contract doesn’t run out for a few months yet… but it’s brilliant. Thankyou for making it!

    finally found this. Saw a post about it on a forum with no link to download. I searched the zune marketplace on my HTC Titan to no avail. Looking forward to trying it out.
