Obby: Be a Chicken
Obby: Be a Chicken - Play Online
Ever wanted to be a tiny chicken that eats pizza until you're literally bigger than a skyscraper? This is basically Agar.io meets Crossy Road, but you're a blocky chicken in a city full of floating donuts and other birds trying to outgrow you. Your goal is simple: consume everything in sight, grow massive, and dominate the leaderboard. The title says "obby" but don't expect traditional parkour—this is pure survival-of-the-hungriest arcade chaos.

- Works Anywhere: Runs smoothly in any browser on PC or mobile—no downloads, no high-end GPU needed.
How to Play Obby: Be a Chicken
Getting started is dead simple, but climbing to the top of the leaderboard? That takes strategy and speed.
Start Small, Eat Everything
You spawn as a baby chicken in a voxel city littered with food—pizza slices, donuts, burgers, all floating with score numbers above them. Use WASD to waddle around and run into anything edible. Each bite adds to your size and score. The bigger you get, the more intimidating you become. On mobile, just use the joystick and swipe the screen to look around. Hit SHIFT on desktop to sprint when you need to chase down a juicy donut or escape a bigger bird.
Avoid Bigger Chickens
Here's the catch: other chickens (real players or bots, hard to tell honestly) are hunting the same food. If someone's bigger than you, they can eliminate you by touching you. I learned this the hard way when a massive purple chicken named "BEAST" flattened me at 500 points. You'll see their usernames floating above them—if their score is higher, run. Use buildings and narrow alleys to juke them while you hunt smaller prey.
Grow, Unlock, Repeat
As your score climbs, you'll collect currency for the skin shop (press E on PC). New colors and patterns unlock as you grind. Press R to open the gift menu and claim freebies. The loop is addictive: survive long enough, cash in, buy a flashy red skin, then dive back in to show it off. There's no real "ending"—just an endless chase to hit four-digit scores and stay alive longer than everyone else.
Who is Obby: Be a Chicken for?
Perfect for kids and casual players looking for something bright, brainless, and instantly playable. If you loved Slither.io or any .io game, this scratches the same itch but with a silly chicken theme. It's safe, colorful, and requires zero learning curve—my 8-year-old nephew figured it out in 10 seconds. That said, hardcore players might find the lack of depth boring after 20 minutes. This isn't a skill-based competitive game; it's a time-killer you play between YouTube videos.
The Gameplay Vibe
Honestly? It's chaotic but chill. The action is constant—you're always moving, always eating—but there's no real pressure unless a giant chicken rolls up on you. The voxel art is super basic (think cheap mobile game assets), and the city feels copy-pasted with the same trees and buildings everywhere. There's no music I could detect, just generic munching sound effects. Visually, it's functional but forgettable. The skybox is that default Unity gradient blue. It won't win any awards, but it runs butter-smooth even on my old laptop, which is a plus.
Technical Check: Saves & Performance
The game saves your currency and unlocked skins automatically using browser cache, so don't worry about losing progress—just don't clear your cookies. Performance-wise, this is optimized for potatoes. The low-poly models and flat shading mean it'll run on anything: old phones, Chromebooks, your grandma's 2015 laptop. I didn't experience a single frame drop, even with 10+ chickens on screen. Load times are instant. It's the kind of game you bookmark and launch when you have 5 minutes to waste.
Quick Verdict: Pros & Cons
A mindless, snackable browser game that does exactly what it promises—no more, no less.
- ✅ Pro: Instant gratification. Boot it up and you're eating pizza as a chicken in 3 seconds flat.
- ✅ Pro: Runs everywhere. Seriously, I tested it on my phone, tablet, and two laptops—flawless.
- ❌ Con: Gets repetitive fast. After 10 rounds, you've seen everything the game has to offer. The "survival without parkour" tagline is misleading—there's no real obby elements at all.
Controls
Responsive and simple, no complaints here. The sprint button makes a real difference when dodging predators.
- Desktop: WASD to move, SHIFT to run, E for skin shop, R for gifts, TAB for pause.
- Mobile: On-screen joystick for movement, swipe to rotate camera. Works great with touch.
