  • Summary: Climb behind the trigger and help our distressed farmer friend obliterate hordes of no good cluckers! Great comic sound effects, and catchy original songs to fashion a world where hunting fowl is a blast! Brilliant animation takes you through forests and villages, through deserts and mountains, winging winged adversaries and piling up points. [DSI Games]… Expand

    It’s an accessible and easy-to-master Wii game, providing simplistic gameplay and a neat art style. It’s certainly not "Call of Duty," but on the Wii that may be a good thing.

    Hint: There are many good flash-based games out there that you can play for free; just go to their website through the Wii's Internet browser!

    The problem is that Chicken Shoot isn’t $5.

    As a Virtual Console release or a tech demo for a bigger project, Chicken Shoot might’ve been iffy – possibly Ok, if it were a buck or two. But as a full title on a Wii disc, it can barely compete with games released 10 years ago, let alone what we have today.

    A great game hidden within bad box art.

    This is a very interesting game. I give it a 5 not because it deserves one, necessarily, but because of the simple, somewhat guilty appeal.


    Pros:
    Simple time-waster
    Doesn't get old too quickly
    Multiplayer, while hardly there, is surprisingly fun with a friend.

    Cons:
    It looks like banner ad.
    It could be classified as genocide
    Only one minigame ... and it's not even worth mentioning.
    Price for value

    In short, it's a fun game, but very simple. No plot twists, heck, no plot at all, but it's fun.

    Final verdict: A good, solid game if you just want to waste time, but don't look at it as a serious game. Maybe wait 'till this one hits the bargain bin.    … Expand

    I was hoping this game would be a Point Blank or Duck Hunt. Sadly, it fails to even provide a captivating gameplay for even one level. The controls are awkward, especially the panning of the screen, and the shooting is often unresponsive and nonsensical - the fully automatic gun is a joke. Duck Hunt on Wiiplay is much better than this sad game, and that's not really saying much as I gave away my copy of Wiiplay to a friend.… Expand

    A terrible game by all accounts. I can simply not understand the positive user reviews. Utter garbage it is. Sure, it may provide some guilty pleasure, But sucks so, yeah.… Expand
