About this game
What Did The Chicken See
THE STORY: WELCOME TO THE SEWER: You have hit rock bottom. The world around you is decaying, rendered in brown hues and digital noise. You are not alone, but your companion is not a friend—it is a narrator who sees through the facade of modern existence.
What Did The Chicken See is a dark, philosophical journey that challenges the player to question the systems that govern their lives. From the rigidity of the education system to the hypocrisy of social labels, nothing is safe from critique. This is not a story about saving the world; it is a story about dismantling the illusion of it.
GAMEPLAY
This is a Visual Novel and Interactive Fiction experience focused on atmosphere and narrative depth.

The Illusion of Choice: Navigate through dialogue options that test your perspective. Are you making your own decisions, or are you just following the script written by society?
Glitch in the System: Immerse yourself in a world that feels broken. The visual and audio design reflects the psychological state of the protagonist, using distortion to blur the line between reality and nightmare.
