Chicken Assassin: Reloaded

In Brief

100 keys for Chicken Assassin: Reloaded an intense clicker game with loads of rewards. I think we were given the original version of this game as a limited giveaway back in 2016 HERE when it was called Chicken Assassin: Master of Humiliation. I've checked the game play videos and when I click on the greenlight page where Master of humiliation was originally advertised, it takes me to the reloaded version.

Installation:

The installation is via the Steam client. If you are not familiar with activating a Steam game, go to the top menu and select Games. From the drop-down menu select 'Activate a Product on Steam'. The game will then be available to install on any computer you install the Steam client on and sign in using your Steam account. If you're new to Steam, you can download the Steam client HERE and create a Steam account HERE. Once the key has been added to your account it will be permanently tied to that account and cannot be changed.

Prepare to give your hand an intense workout as you battle a slew of eclectic adversaries and encounter special bosses in this frenetically action packed game! You play as Mean Mcallister, the living embodiment of what would happen if you combined Rambo, Foghorn Leghorn, a bottle of hot sauce, and a case of energy drinks together.

As you progress, you can upgrade Mean with various fighting styles and skills, access an arsenal of weapons to dole out punishment, and customize clothing that boosts your stat attributes.

Chicken Assassin: Reloaded is a ‘clicker’. Yes, those games you often find on mobile platforms that are purely designed to reward the player for tapping the screen as many times as possible. It's a very simple gameplay mechanic but one that will instantly appeal to gamers looking to spend some free for quick satisfaction.

That said, this two-year-old offering surprised many gamers with the stellar quality of the product. Presentation remains impressive even today, with a silly plot that sees Mcallister chasing his lady lover across a varied and absurd amount of levels, filled with some genuinely amusing foes. As for gameplay, you simply need to move the cursor over the enemy on your left or right and unleash the fury on that ‘A’ button. Mcallister just sits in the middle of the screen, taking it and dishing it out until your energy is depleted. Every ten waves you fight a boss, and even if you fall in battle, there is truly no penalty - you get thrown back at the main screen.

Loot is where it’s at, and Chicken Assassin has plenty of it. Some you can sell for souls/cash, while other loot comes in the form of usable weapons (including firearms) and wearable armour, and both visually change your character's look. As you gain experience and level up, Mcallister's upgrades are unlocked and can be purchased using the souls you gather during the fights. Not enough souls? Just hit the cauldron repeatedly until you have enough to pay for that upgrade, or open the chest for extra loot. You will be wearing out that ‘A’ button and your thumb, even if you’re not fighting.

As previously mentioned, the presentation is truly top notch. Varied and humorous characters - whose design often includes nods to pop culture icons - duke it out in lovely environments that begin in the local fight club but will end up in a middle of a riot or even a pirate ship. The level of customization you can give Mcallister will certainly keep you interested, even if just to see how you can stack up on buffs and how ridiculous you can make him look. But for how long will you be doing the same ‘A’ bashing cycle over and over again until you either get bored, damage your controller of choice or - even more troublesome - get some straining injury?

Chicken Assassin: Reloaded is being marketed as an action RPG and while it certainly does have its fair amount of upgrades and shenanigans, in the end, it is exactly what we already discovered back in 2016: a ‘clicker’ game dressed up in humorous and stylish art that effortlessly manages to make other ‘clicker’ games look appalling by comparison. While this bird does nothing wrong and snugly fits among the other avian heroes already out on the Nintendo Switch, we are not sure if the general audience will greet him with open arms or clenched fists.

Conclusion:

If you are a fan of Clicker games, this one is okay. I did find the initial stages of the game a little hard going, for example, it took me over half an hour before I could get past wave 10; however, once I’d got the gist of the games upgrade system, which wasn’t explained, I soon started to progress much faster. I’m not a fan of clicker games, but I have played several over the last few years and have always found myself coming back for more and more partly due to the rewards you get for virtually every stage of the game. My wrist and upper arm are really sore and an old collar bone injury is now aching like **ll (a 900cc motorcycle landed on top of me shattering four ribs and my collar bone) at the moment after playing the game for a few hours without a break (and is the reason I posted this review a little late). I would definitely recommend this game to anyone who enjoys playing this type of game. It’s got gorgeous graphics and fast game play. 8 out of 10 from me.
