The Great Flock Off
The world's most important poultry competition is waiting for you.
Crack, collect, compete, but only the best chickens win!
The Great Flock Off is a cosy deck-building strategy game where you collect, merge, upgrade and compete with the most spectacular chickens the world has ever seen. Draft your chooks, upgrade your coop, and strut your way through ten days of increasingly fierce competition, all at your own pace, with a cup of tea in hand.
Your Chickens, Your Strategy
Every run starts fresh. You'll draft chickens from a rotating selection, each one coming with their own rarity, colour, size and special abilities that combine in surprising ways. A tiny common chicken might seem underwhelming on paper, but pair it with the right effects and watch it punch way above its weight.
As your flock grows so does your strategy. Do you build around a single colour for big multiplier bonuses? Stack flat bonuses on your biggest birds? Hunt for rare Whimsy chickens with effects that completely break the rules? The combinations are deep enough to keep every run feeling different, but approachable enough that you'll never feel lost.
The Journey to the Top
Each run takes you through a hand-crafted journey map. Before every contest you'll pick your path, choosing between different competition routes and stopping off in town to visit the shop, upgrade your chooks, and manage your growing flock. Every decision matters. Gold is tight, contests get harder, and one bad day can cost you a life.
Lose three lives and it's back to the beginning, but you'll always know exactly where things went wrong, and you'll go again with a better plan.
Contest Day
When contest day arrives, your chickens march out into the arena one by one and take their place under the spotlight. Watch them walk out to the stage, settle into position, and then score their points in real time as each ability fires off. Flat bonuses tick up, multipliers kick in, group bonuses light up your whole flock at once. It feels genuinely satisfying every single time.
Beat the rival teams and climb the leader board. Fall short and you lose a strike. Make it to Day ten in the top three and you win the whole thing.
Always Something to Discover
With a huge variety of chicken effects, weather conditions that shake up every contest, special contest rules that force you to think differently, and a prestige system that keeps things interesting long after your first win, there's always a new combination to try, a new strategy to explore, or a new flock to be proud of.
The Vibe
The Great Flock Off is the kind of game you sit down with for "just one more run" and look up an hour later. It's got the strategic depth of a deck builder wrapped up in the cosiest, most charming package I could put together. Pixel art chickens, a laid back pace, a lovely soundtrack, and absolutely no pressure to play any way but your own.
Whether you're a seasoned deck builder or just someone who really likes chickens, you'll feel right at home.
Crack, collect, compete, but only the best chickens win!
