Description
Chuckie Egg is remake of this classic video game for iOS.
Retro Style Graphics
This remake is designed with a retro look of the 80s (Pixelated Graphics) for a classic look.
Gameplay...
As Hen-House Harry, the player must collect the twelve eggs positioned in each level, before a countdown timer reaches zero. In addition there are piles of seed which may be collected to increase points and stop the countdown timer for a while, but will otherwise be eaten by ostriches that patrol the level, causing them to pause. If the player touches a ostriches or falls through a gap in the bottom of the level, he loses a life. Each level is made of solid platforms, ladders and occasionally lift platforms that constantly move upwards but upon leaving the top of the screen will reappear at the bottom. Hitting the top of the screen while on one of these lifts, however, will also cause the player to lose a life.
Eight levels are defined and are played initially under the watch of a giant caged duck. Upon completion of all eight the levels are played again without hens, but Harry is now pursued by the freed duck who is not affected by the positioning of platforms. A second completion of all eight levels yields a third play through with both ostriches and the duck. A fourth pass introduces additional ostriches. Finally, a fifth pass has the duck and additional ostriches moving at a greater speed. If the player completes all forty levels then they advance to 'level 41' which is in fact exactly the same as level 33.
The player starts with five lives, and an extra life is awarded every next level.

Ratings and Reviews
A retro classic
Now there’s a choice of two control schemes which is great. Be nice to have more options e.g original sound effects. Great to have this classic on my phone. An all time great
Developer Response ,
They is currently an Add-In for this game to give retro style controls.
One can even edit the control file in the settings folder to fine tune the controls to their own preferences.

Not bad
Controls were never quite going to recapture the AZ<> classic setup but the virtual joypad is pretty fiddly trying to make smooth progress up and down ladders. Did you try a multi touch version of the buttons controls?
Also don't think the enemy ducks take the right route, and you shouldn't be able to jump the lift gap on level 3.
Some nice nostalgia value but don't see me playing much more due to a few flaws.
Way too small.
It has some kind of resemblance to the original game but is so small on my screen I can barely see what’s anything…
