How to play Chicken Attack on Mac
Game summary
Chicken Attack is a single player, 3-D, top-down, isometric game based loosely on the classic Breakout. It is the sequel to the game Chicken's Revenge.
The game features a hen who's out to rescue her chickens which have been captured and imprisoned. To secure their release our heroine fires a ball, 'Breakout style', at everything in her path. This clears the ground uncovers treasure which increases the score, pressure plates that allow her to advance and power-ups that may either help or hinder. All of which, if used carefully, will ultimately enable her to free the chicks. When the last chick has been freed the level is complete.
There are three types of game play, normal, easy and timed, in all the objective is to release the chicks and score points.
The game is entirely mouse controlled.
First released: Dec 2007
Play Chicken Attack on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Chicken Attack on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
Chicken Attack installation steps for Mac
