About Our Chicken Road Team
Our Chicken Road Story
It all started in 2018 when a small group of passionate game developers met at a game jam in San Francisco. United by their love for classic arcade games and mobile entertainment, they wondered why the iconic "chicken crossing the road" concept hadn't been fully realized as a modern mobile game without gambling mechanics.
What began as a weekend project quickly evolved into a full-time passion. After six months of development in a tiny apartment, the first version of Chicken Road was born. Our small team was determined to create a game that was fun, challenging, and accessible to players of all ages without relying on gambling mechanics to generate excitement.
Fast forward to today, and Chicken Road has grown beyond our wildest expectations, with millions of downloads worldwide and a dedicated community of players who love guiding their chickens across increasingly challenging roads. Our team has expanded from the original three founders to a diverse group of fifteen talented individuals, but our core mission remains the same: create the most entertaining road-crossing adventure possible!
