Chicken Police – Paint it RED! Review

Chicken Police – Paint it RED! is a narrative-driven detective game developed by Handy Games. It features a legendary detective-duo, Sonny Featherland and Marty MacChicken, who are forced to work together on a case that is weirder than anything they’ve ever encountered before.

The game combines elements of visual novels and classic adventure games, and it has more than 30 characters to talk to, with some having to be seriously interrogated. The game offers more than 30 places to visit, and some of them will change several times during the story. You can return to previous locations on several occasions, to find hidden secrets, meet new characters, and gather information about the world and its inhabitants.

Chicken Police – Paint it RED! has a weirdly stunning visual style made with the usage of real photos and photo-realistic 3D backgrounds, inspired by classic film-noir movies, and influenced by animated features. Its noir mood is enhanced by an original music soundtrack, backed up by professional voice acting for all characters with more than 8 hours of spoken dialogue! The game is a satire that recalls the mood and atmosphere of the 40’s film-noir movies, and as the best noirs and hardboiled detective stories, it’s so gritty and hopeless that it can only be served with a lot of cynical humor.
