Love this game! Graphics, music, creativity. All fantastic. It’s definitely more narrative-driven, so if you’re one of those people that always wants to skip dialogue, you’ll probably hate this game. If a hard-boiled noir detective novel were a game, it’d be this. The story has tons of layers and nuances, and the voice acting is *chef kiss.* But my one issue is actually with the voice acting. Marty calls Sonny “Sawny” while everyone else calls him “Sunny,” which I assume is correct. Did no one notice in a play through it was being mispronounced or what’s the deal? It’s small but weirdly annoying.
I absolutely love this game, and I would give it 5 stars but I keep running into a strange glitch. At the Hop Dog, whenever I tap on the jukebox it zooms into it like it does with many other things when you’re looking closer at them, but the screen is just black, it never loads, and the game just makes a few clicking sounds and that’s it. I’m still able to get out of it and continue playing the game but if there comes a point where I need to access the jukebox for whatever reason I don’t think I’ll be able to. UPDATE: I went back to the jukebox again and from tapping around at random on the black screen I was able to select music tracks to listen to, so the game is loading the jukebox interface but not loading the visuals…very weird.
Take a noir detective film, the kind that usually takes itself super seriously, and combine it with awkward rooster men who are impossible to take seriously, and you have Chicken Police. There’s much to admire here: the cast of characters, the humor, and the detailed world building. The story is linear and the pacing is a little slow at first, but it’s worth it. The port works great with no issues.
This is a taxing game. It takes a long time to get through everything, to look at everything, to talk to everyone - multiple times. But, the story is good, the graphics are good, the writing is clever and the acting is excellent.Finishing the game is a rewarding, if exhaustive, achievement. You'll probably need a walkthrough to do well.
I haven’t felt this curious about 2 chickens. The world build felt like a real place good job it’s an amazing port zero issues. Great story telling. One thing is this is a game for older audiences like tv14 ish. The animals might make it seem intended for younger investigator fans but this is a true crime game like “miss Marple. ” It’s dark and mysterious.
Holy Cow. This game is clucking amazing! If you love detective stories, if you love film noir, if you love sultry jazz on a rainy night, you will love this game! Put your fedora on, light a smoke and pop the collar on your trench coat. It’s time to knock on some doors and solve some mysteries. I’d write more but I want to get back to the game. Shut up and buy this game.
