so the first game I’m “””reviewing”””: Cheeky Chooks (it’s also on steam if you like achievements) 

this is a game where your long-term goal is to architect a farm that will make chickens happy. Ignore the currency and metrics; they are simply a means to an end, and the end is poultry paradise. 

below is my farm, with it’s carefully segregated districts (I have taught the chickens about classism) with the gated chicken community in the center.  

it’s kind of an idle game - I found it wasn’t so bad most of the time, because I could mess around with farm layout for ages while money accrued, but eventually I’d hit a wall where I’d have to wait for big upgrades. 

Steam says it took me 4 hours to 100% but I am also a ruthlessly efficient chicken manager and every one of those hours was joy. (except the ones where the game was running in the background. I can’t help the chickens until they help me)

but anyway it’s adorable and costs zero money and you can get a chicken covered in louis vuitton print

somehow played 200 hours of Donkey Kong 64 and only finished 26% of it
