Chicken Run is a story about a group of chickens on Tweedy's Farm who are struggling to keep up with their work. Mrs Tweedy, the farmer's wife, has come up with a new business idea - making chicken pies. The leader of the chickens, Ginger, knows they need to escape, and that's when Rocky, an American chicken, arrives to help them out. The problem is, chickens can't fly! So the gang comes up with a plan to build a flying machine using parts collected throughout their journey.
The gameplay in Chicken Run involves collecting pieces for the flying machine while avoiding obstacles and enemies. As you progress through the levels, new challenges and puzzles are introduced that require you to use your wits and quick thinking to overcome. The game is fast-paced and action-packed, with plenty of excitement and adventure as you help the chickens escape from Tweedy's Farm.

INTRODUCTION
Ginger is a chicken with a mission. Living in Hut 17, behind the barbed wire fences and searchlights of the Tweedy Farm, she begins to fear for the lives of all her friends. In her heart of hearts she knows there's something better out there in the big wide world.
Ginger is determined to lead the chickens in an escape to freedom (before it's too late). To do this she enlists the help of Rocky, a smooth-talking American rooster, and Nick and Fetcher, two rats who'll scrounge anything for a price (eggs!). Together they try many wild and wacky escape plans to flee the coop.
This is Chicken Run—the game based on the worldwide movie hit! This is your chance to help Ginger, Rocky, Mac and all the other chickens get away before they're turned into chicken pies.

Enemies & Characters
GINGER
Ginger is a feisty, young and idealistic hen whose one goal in life is to help everyone escape from the Tweedys' farm for a better life beyond the green and distant hills.
ROCKY
Rocky is a sweet-talking American rooster who gets by in life on his good looks and charm. He is fun to be with and the life and soul of the party.
NICK AND FETCHER
Nick and Fetcher are two cockney rats who would sell anything to anybody as long as there was a profit in it. They are sharp and streetwise with the skills of pick-pockets and street vendors.
MAC
Mac is the engineering brains of the outfit, the math genius who works out the practicalities for all of Ginger's wild plans. She is Ginger's right hand hen in any escape plan.
MRS TWEEDY
Mrs Tweedy is a cold and humorless woman who longs to take the egg farm into full-scale, automated chicken pie production. She hates everything about chickens and thinks them extremely stupid.
MR TWEEDY
Hen-pecked and oafish, Mr Tweedy is a simple man who is convinced that the chickens are "up to something." His domineering wife, however, convinces him that these silly notions are all in his head.
Tips & Maps
THE MRS TWEEDY DISGUISE PLAN
Ginger must find items in the chicken coop to make wire cutters, then find items around the farmyard to create a "Mrs Tweedy" disguise.
THE DOG CHASE
The chickens, dressed as Mrs Tweedy, try to escape from the guard dog and free other chickens from their coops. Use the and buttons quickly to keep your balance. Use the directional buttons (or the left stick of the DUALSHOCK™™ analog controller) to control your character's direction. Set other chickens free by passing in front of their coop doors.
THE EGG-LAYING GAME
In this game, feed chickens until they lay eggs, then catch the eggs in your basket before they smash. Use directional buttons to cycle through chutes, tap to feed, and hold down to catch eggs.
THE SECOND ACT
Ginger and Rocky must find equipment to build a Catapult, a Seesaw, and a Fireworks launcher to help chickens escape over the fence.
THE SEESAW
Launch hens onto a mattress using the Seesaw so they can bounce to freedom. Use directional buttons (left/right to aim and up/down for power) and press to launch.
THE CATAPULT
Lob chickens over the compound fence with the Catapult, aiming to land them on small objects floating in the pond. Use left/right to aim and up/down for power, then press to launch.
