Chickens. For centuries we have oppressed them, grilling, roasting, stewing, and stuffing them in buns. The time has come for us to pay. Intergalactic chickens are invading Earth, seeking revenge for the oppression of their earthly brethren! From the Steam store page

    -No mouse sensitivity setting is inexcusable. The 2002 game has it. -Punishes you for using full auto by slowing rate of fire and overheating much faster. The hold-to-fire weapons are too weak... -...and clicking/pressing space nearly ceaslessly for 75 minutes to finish a veteran difficulty mission will hurt your hands. -Only the green and the secret weapons are worth using in veteran and super star difficulties -All regular chickens look the same (save for vest colours) and make for a visually…

    Chicken invaders 3 although nostalgic is quite a boring game. If you played the first Chicken Invaders you played them all, with very little diversity the game will have you beating the same 10 stages all over again. With a few achievements to get, this game offers little to no goals after beating it for the first time. 5/10 - Nostalgic but over all meh kinda game...

    If Chicken Invaders at all looks even slightly appealing for you to play, then play this one. This is by far, the definitive peak of the entire Chicken Invaders series and while 4/5 are incremental improvements, they don't capture the raw spirit of the Chicken Invaders experience quite like Revenge of the Yolk does. The boss design captures the essence of the game experience. You need to fly right under enemies to shoot them, but doing so puts you in a vulnerable position for attack. This…

    Chicken Invaders 3: Revenge of the Yolk is the point where the series begins to feel more confident in its identity, expanding its scale and introducing small but meaningful refinements that elevate it beyond a simple arcade novelty. Developed by InterAction Studios, it retains the same core concept—fighting off waves of hostile chickens in a fast-paced shoot ’em up—but presents it with more structure, more content, and a slightly deeper layer of mechanics that make the experience feel more…

    Amazing game from amazing series. And trust me when I say, this is not just nostalgia talking: Chicken Invaders is really one of the best Shoot 'Em Up games, even today in (almost) 2026. You'll have lots of fun playing this with family member or with close friend. Best part? You don't need controller to play co-op, just Mouse & Keyboard is enough. P.S. Don't forget about Christmas Edition DLC, it brings more fun to the table. Thank you to the random person on SteamGifts for giving us the…

    Space Invaders-type game where you shoot chickens and eggs, with Star Wars and Star Trek reference in it. Overall, nothing special about it.

    Honestly, the episode remastering has made this, and the other 5 chicken invaders games WAY better and less repettitive with the addition of CIU enviroments, endless mode and 1 life mode (+ i am in love with the no heat mode, makes me feel like i'm playing cuphead). I still don't get boored of screwing up my no death runs to the final boss, but i still enjoy the first chicken invaders game i have ever played. My biggest complain is that the update has removed online and has rendered the…

    Great game! Loads of variety and fun! They've also added another difficulty level after Veteran - Superstar Hero. A quick heads-up though, it is the hardest one of the whole series. Some achievements will take effort to be completed.

    TL;DR: Chicken Invaders 3 is a sequel that builds upon its predecessor, Chicken Invaders 2, with a lot of new features and improvements. The game's UI is notably better, providing more information to the player about their status, such as when they'll get the next rocket or what their current weapon power is. These improvements help players make more strategic decisions during gameplay. One of the most significant changes in Chicken Invaders 3 is the inclusion of a weapon heat mechanic. With…

    Its a good game apart from the snowball affect is too bad on this game, you lose 5 power levels every time you die, and it they give you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ power drops. When youre stuck with a low power weapon on the harder difficulty youre going to die more, and you cant kill enough chickens to get another drop... They really need to work on balance

    Chicken Invaders 3 are just pure nostalgia Long time ago I had a Demo of this one and I am extremely happy it work on Windows 11 no problem. The game is easy shoot'em'up with chickens as it's main selling point. It's best played on mouse and on novice difficulty. Wondering why novice? Cause "harder" modes just give chickens more HP and weaken your guns. That only makes the run longer, not harder. (Not that this is hard to begin with. Aside 2 bosses and a few waves that have chickens all…

    They overdid the difficulty in the game compared to the second part. Weapons heat up, upgrades are rare and when you die you lose most of them and the balance of some weapons is bad. The terrain is too small and the enemy pushes you into a corner or pushes into you, there is no room to maneuver. And there is not much difference between the first and second level of difficulty. And I think that some of the weapons are missing. Maybe with a big discount or not worth it.

    Chicken Invaders 3 has made the biggest advancement in the Chicken Invaders serie by having high quality graphics, a distinct HUD in comparison with the first games, the complexity of the levels increases and brings a high number of new special powers. I personally consider it as the hardest game from the Chicken Invaders serie in terms of unlocking achievements and, of course, it brings for the first time the well known achievement: "Greatest Chicken Hunter of All Time Award", which will haunt…

    I found this game again for the first time in maybe 10 years since I was introduced to it on my uncle's brick of a computer. It's so simple fun and visually stimulating, the biggest thing about this beautiful game - aside from nostalgia - is that over the years that I have played it, is how much love went into it. How deeply the creators cared about it, from the fun challenges, the music, the gags. It's incredible, easily a favourite of mine.

    Compared to the old CI2, this was definitely an improvement. The levels are alot more interesting than CI2, more weapons to mess around with, unique levels, and a proper difficulty curve, with levels more interesting and difficult the more you move on. The graphics style is majorly improved, pixels are nowhere to be seen. One of the biggest upgrades from CI2. The bad part is the cooldown, it just stops that mayhem of bullets raining down on the chickens. Also, death punishments are too harsh,…

    This game is truly a masterpiece. I've played all the other chicken invader games, and I must say none of them, to me, stand out as much as this one. Though at the time of writing I only have 4.6 total hours in game, I've been playing this game since ~2009-2010. It was a big part of my childhood, and if I were you, I would give no hesitation into buying this game. (I recommend the Christmas Edition DLC, both because it's the only version I play, and the soundtrack is really good.)
