Bug Byte have a habit of releasing old Atari games, so I'm not quite
sure whether this fits into that category or not. I'll give it the
benefit of the doubt seeing as I've never heard of it before.
It's egg-hatching time in the henhouse and your job
as 'Super Rooster' is to protect the eggs from marauding rats and
hedgehogs. You then wait for the eggs to hatch, usher the young
chicks to safety, and Bob's your auntie!
If only it was that simple. Yes, a Rooster's life is not a happy one
and you must find time between chores to gobble worms and grain in
order to keep your strength up. And pity help you if you make a hash
of things cause that's when the 'missus' puts in an appearance and
belts you over the head with a rolling pin. It gives a whole new
meaning to the word 'henpecked'!!
CHICKEN CHASE is a nice simple, uncomplicated, game with reasonable
sound and graphics plus a sense of humour. It's in machine code too
which is a step in the right direction for Bug Byte. Worth looking
at.
