About the Game

The sky islands are under siege and your coop is the last thing standing. Grab a weapon, rally a flock of unlikely defenders, and hold the line solo or with up to three friends in online co-op.

Chicken TD isn't your sit-back-and-place-towers defense game. You're right in the thick of it: one wing on your weapon, the other summoning a menagerie of critters to fight beside you. Every wave you survive earns you more corn to power up your defenders and more eggs to crack open the next upgrade. How long can your coop cluck it out?

Fight hands-on

Pick your poison from seven wildly different weapons and blast, slash, and sling your way through the swarm:

  • Sword — up close and personal

  • Shotgun — spread the love

  • Triple Shuriken — death by a thousand throws

  • Banana — exactly as silly as it sounds

  • Wizard's Tome & Wizard Staff — go full arcane

  • Aura — melt anything that dares get close

Summon your flock

Deploy and upgrade a roster of ten one-of-a-kind defenders, each with their own attacks and a signature special: Jellyfish, Hogsworth, Paddy, Crab, Foxy, Wizard Cat and heavy hitters like Skelly Clarkson, Magilla Gorilla, Donna Shello, and the Spaghetti Monster.

Spend the corn you earn each run to level them up mid-battle and turn a scrappy defense into an unstoppable barnyard war machine.

Grow between runs

  • Skill tree — bank your eggs (and to permanently unlock new
    weapons, defenders, and upgrades.

  • Make it yours — customize your ct with hats.

Round up the flock — 1-4 player online co-op

  • Team up with up to three friends to defend the coop together.

  • Proximity voice chat with your teammates.

  • Revive downed friends, share the corn, and split the swarm across the map.

Five stages of feathered mayhem

Battle across floating islands from Triple Threat and Steering Clear to Nerf's Library, The Isles, and more; each with its own layout and challenge.
