Impsoft's latest offering Chicken Run is an energetic arcade game.

Farmer Folly has a super egg-laying hen. But his battery farm is plagued by the local fox.

The hen lays eggs, which the farmer can collect only one at a time. The eggs soon hatch into hungry chicks, which greedily gobble up the hen's supply of corn. The poor old farmer can't refill the seed trays quick enough and the unfortunate hen soon runs out of corn. And if that isn't enough to contend with, the fox will eat either the chicks or the hen without batting an eyelid.

You may get three lives and nine skill levels are on offer. The higher the level the faster the game.

At level nine the game is almost unplayable and I rarely managed to get above level three.

Nice use of colour and sound, and good animation throughout. A pleasure to play.
