Games like ultimate chicken horse7/29/2023 ![]() It’s amazing the amount of pure evil that comes out of a person when they only have a few seconds to place their chosen piece on the map. It’s like a cross between The Running Man and The Krypton Factor, especially by the end of a game when there are saw blades travelling up and down walls, or wrecking balls are forever swinging over a black hole (stop giggling), not to mention the hockey pucks being belted across the screen and the crossbow bolts raining down over that final jump to the finish flag. The best part is during the building phase, as everyone tries their darnedest to create the most fiendish obstacle courses known to man… or chicken, I guess. Basically, if you aren’t trying to get everyone else killed, you aren’t doing your job correctly. Points will be doled out to the fastest players, or the ones that skillfully evaded traps, but if everyone easily makes it to the finish line, no points are given out. The second phase is the actual platforming section itself, in which you each attempt to cross the pit of death. Firstly, each player has a turn to place or move a single object, ranging from standard platforms to traps of horrifying design, in an effort to allow you to cross but hinder your rivals.

If you can make it and your friends can’t, then you score a point.You know that a game named Ultimate Chicken Horse is not going to be a serious affair. In multiplayer mode players can try to reach the end of the level, finding new ways to screw each other over in the process. You will come across new blocks and traps as you progress through levels, providing you with new ways to reach the end of the level. In singleplayer mode you will need to build a path that you can use to reach the end of the level, but you can only do this with a limited set of platforms. What is perhaps the most intriguing about Ultimate Chicken Horse is that both building a level and playing through the level happen at the same time, so players will need to learn how to swap in and out of roles as both an intelligent designer and a skilled platformer. In Ultimate Chicken Horse players can both design and play through platforming levels as animals by themselves or alongside their friends. ![]() Ultimate Chicken Horse is a party platformer being developed by Clever Endeavour Games and will be available for purchase on Steam, but will also have later Xbox One and PS4 releases. ![]()
