Recently, many people in the forum have been asking whether the game "Chicken Squad" is worth playing. As a reviewer who always insists on using dimensional scoring, I just want to use this post to talk about my scoring ideas and give everyone a reference. Let's talk about the conclusion first: This is a standard mobile chicken game, free and free of charge. The overall performance is quite satisfactory, but in some details, the intentions and shortcomings of the small factory can be seen.
Screen: 6.5/10
My first impression when I opened the game was "the picture quality is very much in the Android 5.0 era". The modeling is not sophisticated, the textures have a sense of age, and the lighting and special effects are relatively simple. There is a clear gap between it and the current mainstream masterpieces. However, the advantage is that the frame rate is stable, low-end machines can run smoothly, and the map scene recognition is okay. The distribution of trees, stones, and houses is logically clear, and the judgment will not be affected by unclear visibility. Friends who like retro style may accept it, but those who pursue visual enjoyment may be disappointed.
Gameplay: 7/10
The core gameplay is the standard "parachute-collect-shrink-fight" cycle, with everything you need: airdrops, vehicles, a variety of firearms and accessories, as well as the "Giant of Light" transformation experience (actually an easter egg-style ultimate move that can temporarily increase combat effectiveness). You can choose a spot when parachuting, and the distribution of resources on the map is reasonable. You can find your own rhythm whether you are just gunning or surviving. The disadvantages are that the weapon balance is average, the recoil design of some guns is a bit strange, the melee spray is too strong, and the long-range shooting experience is not refreshing enough. In addition, the map is not big and the pace is fast, so it is suitable for playing a game in a fragmented time.
Krypton Gold: 10/10
The charging mode is written as 0, but there are indeed zero krypton gold points after playing. There are no monthly passes, no skins, no gun-buying malls, not even battle passes or passes, it's just a free game. The only way to spend money may be to unlock some ad-based features (such as resurrecting once, accelerating poison running), but they are all available for free by watching ads, and they do not affect the balance at all. This is very rare in chicken games, so there is no problem in giving full marks.
Social: 5.5/10
There is no forced social interaction in the game, you can match alone or team up with friends (through room codes or friend system). However, the friend function is relatively rudimentary, with no voice communication (only typing), and cooperation when forming a team relies entirely on tacit understanding. Almost no one spoke on the public screen and chat channels, and the overall social atmosphere was cold. If you like to eat chicken in silence alone, it won't have much impact; if you want to make sarcastic comments with your friends, the experience will be average.
Overall rating: 7/10 (recommended for light gamers and nostalgic parties)
Advantages: Free and free of charge, runs smoothly, has complete core gameplay, and is suitable for short-term games.
Disadvantages: Outdated graphics, mediocre weapon balance, weak social functions, and lack of novelty in map design.
If you have played early chicken-fighting mobile games and are looking for a nostalgic feeling, or do not have high requirements for picture quality and just want to find a free game to kill time, this one is worth a try. But if you pursue high image quality, strong social interaction, and new mechanisms, then it may not satisfy you. Subjective ratings are for reference only, just follow your own preferences~
