The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

About

Chicken Attack is a single player, 3-D, top-down, isometric game based loosely on the classic Breakout. It is the sequel to the game Chicken's Revenge. The game features a hen who's out to rescue her chickens which have been captured and imprisoned. To secure their release our heroine fires a ball, 'Breakout style', at everything in her path. This clears the ground uncovers treasure which increases the score, pressure plates that allow her to advance and power-ups that may either help or hinder. All of which, if used carefully, will ultimately enable her to free the chicks. When the last chick has been freed the level is complete. There are three types of game play, normal, easy and timed, in all the objective is to release the chicks and score points. The game is entirely mouse controlled.
