Alfred Chicken is an action-adventure game originally created by Twilight. It was released in the United Kingdom in 1993 on the Nintendo Entertainment System.
You take the role of a chicken named Alfred who must find his way through bizarre levels full of balloons, telephones, cheese and other strange elements. While he is on the ground, Alfred can walk, jump, and peck balloons and ground switches. While he is in the air he can dive bomb enemies or springs. Dive bombing enemies will destroy them. Dive bombing springs will bounce Alfred much higher so he can reach platforms well above his normal jumping ability. If he does not hit an enemy or a spring, Alfred will get stuck in the ground for a short time.
To complete a level, Alfred must find and peck all the balloons. The last balloon to peck will take you to a boss fight. If Alfred dies, he starts as an egg located at the last balloon pecked. Alfred can receive a few power ups during the game. For one power up, he gets given a pot of jam, the jam gives Alfred the ability to shoot a bomb (about the size of Alfred himself) which bounces around the screen collecting things and hurting enemies. Another power up is a worm that spins around Alfred destroying enemies that it touches. You must find a can of worms to get this power up. And the Verdict is...
There are more than 100 foes to battle, great graphics, a funky soundtrack, and plenty of platform action, you're in for a 'clucking-good' time with Alfred Chicken. Funky and different. |
