    The game is a film noir adventure which isn't a total disaster but it has some serious flaws:
    1. The story is extremely linear and the gameplay not challenging to the point of being almost like a novel with minor exceptions
    2. The choices that score the interrogations are poorly designed and half of the time they are unintentionally misleading 3. Several characters and dialogues are

    2. The choices that score the interrogations are poorly designed and half of the time they are unintentionally misleading
    3. Several characters and dialogues are completely redundant or out place making the game half of the time just boring
    At the end of the day if you're extremely into film noir adventuring you might like it but it's generally a flawed game.

    I enjoyed this. a good story, i liked the character design. it borders on a visual novel with a few little mini game and action sequences to keep it flowing. it's a short game and leaves some loose ends. looking forward to a sequel.

    Great voice-acting, unique atmosphere, memorable characters and decent story. A bit too short, can't wait for 2nd part.

    For me, it was a little bit boring and short. Which is contradictory, isnt it? The game lacks of more shooting scenes. The plot is ok. I missed more attention to details, for example, at the end, you'll get a telephone number. It could be awesome if there was a minimalistic plot around it if you call it, making the game more replayable. But i guess, it's actually entertaining to play it once.

    Surprisingly GREAT.
    Great voice acting, great aesthetics, great characters, good humor. It doesnt promise to much but it delivers a great experience. Short but fun.
    One of the best main characters i've played.

    This was fun. A fantastic plot, and the character designs were great. It has a few brief minigames and action scenes to keep it moving, but it also resembles a visual novel. It's a brief game that has some unfinished business.

    From the cinematics to the script to the sound design, Chicken Police delivers. If you’re a lover of film noir aesthetics and solid witty dialogue, peck it up. [Issue#183, p.67]

    Chicken Police is far better than I'd expected it to be, due in no small part to the way it nails the noir aesthetic. It's clearly had a lot of care and attention put into it, with puns, jokes and background information tucked behind every corner and in every bit of dialogue. It's a surprise, but Chicken Police is excellent and comes highly recommended to anyone whose egg it pickles.

    Chicken Police is not the most innovative or complex adventure game, but it is one of the most atmospheric ones. It is immersive and fun, with an excellent soundtrack and stellar voice acting. The puzzles are a bit simple and limited in number, but you will not miss them so much thanks to the excellent story and well-written dialogues. The noir atmosphere is the most important element of the recipe, Chicken Police charming you from the very first minutes and guiding you gently to the end by fueling your sense of accomplishment with new discoveries. It is not perfect, but it is an experience you will not regret.
