Description | Fat Chicken is a fresh new take on the tower-defense genre, where you play a factory farm manager trying to fatten up the incoming "mobs" -- which consist of cows, chickens and pigs on their inevitable way to grocery store freezer cases. In this meaty tower defense game, you build factory farming towers in various locales across America to fast-feed incoming waves of livestock, while ensuring they are kept "healthy" with doses of antibiotics. Is what you are doing humane or necessary to meet demand? A game about the issues surrounding factory farming. |
