Fight protesters, plump up, and slaughter livestock in the reverse tower defence Fat Chicken

Is this USDA approved?

Every so often a game pops up that peaks your interest, yet also makes you scratch your head. The recently revealed bread-life-simulator I am Bread is one of those games. 

Another one of those games is the reverse tower defence game, Fat Chicken. It's the game that PETA won't take kindly to (it's even weird for me to write about, considering I don't eat chickens, cows or pigs).

In Fat Chicken your main goal is to fatten up your livestock, slaughter them and make money. Your towers feed, inject your animals with hormones/antibiotics and ultimately keep your animals alive long enough to be slaughtered. Success won't come easily though, you'll have to rent cops to fight off protesters and alien UFO's.

Here's a concise overview from the game's Steam Store page:

  • Huge Campaign – Work your way across the U.S. hitting 13 different locations and 26 challenging levels on your quest to climb the ranks and overthrow the Fat Chicken Meat Co. 
  • Build your farm and staff up with hired hands to meet your Meat Quotas. Strategic Tower Defense gameplay has never been so "udderly" awesome. 
  • Put your R&D department to work – Complete missions to unlock new equipment and tasty upgrades for your farm. 
  • Hire farm hands and "heroes" to herd, help and heal your livestock, all in the name of faster production and more meat for the market. 
  • Full Music Soundtrack – 17 original tracks from award winning composer Jason Graves, fresh off his success with the latest Tomb Raider reboot and the Dead Space series.

The game is only in Early Access, but if you support Fat Chick in Early Access you get two copies of the game plus the sound track (composed by Jason Graves).

Writing about this made me feel weird.
