Meet the creative minds behind the mobile app that revolutionized road crossing games
It all began in 2018 when four friends from different backgrounds – game design, animation, programming, and marketing – came together with a simple yet ambitious goal: to transform the classic "Why did the chicken cross the road?" joke into an engaging mobile gaming experience.
Working from a small apartment in San Francisco, our team spent countless nights brainstorming gameplay mechanics, designing characters, and developing the first prototype of what would become Chicken Road. What started as a passion project quickly gained traction when our early beta version went viral among gaming communities.
In 2020, amid global challenges, we officially launched Chicken Road on app stores worldwide. The game's simple premise combined with addictive gameplay mechanics resonated with players of all ages, resulting in over 10 million downloads in the first month alone.
Today, with a team of 30 talented professionals and offices in San Francisco and Tokyo, we continue to expand the Chicken Road universe with regular updates, new features, and exciting collaborations with major entertainment brands.
At Chicken Road, we're on a mission to create gaming experiences that are simple to learn yet challenging to master, bringing joy and friendly competition to players around the world.
We constantly push the boundaries of mobile gaming, introducing unique gameplay elements that keep players engaged and excited. Our development team embraces creative thinking and is never afraid to experiment with new ideas.
We believe games should be for everyone. That's why we design Chicken Road to be intuitive and enjoyable regardless of age, gaming experience, or device capabilities. Our interfaces are user-friendly and our controls are simple yet responsive.
Our players aren't just users – they're our partners in evolving the game. We actively listen to community feedback, implement requested features, and create a welcoming environment where players can connect, compete, and collaborate.
From pixel-perfect animations to bug-free gameplay, we never compromise on quality. Every update undergoes rigorous testing to ensure a smooth, enjoyable experience. We'd rather delay a release than deliver something that doesn't meet our standards.

Hear from the Chicken Road community around the world
I've been playing mobile games for years, but Chicken Road has become my daily go-to. The simple premise combined with challenging gameplay keeps me coming back. My 8-year-old daughter and I compete for high scores – she's currently winning!
As a game developer myself, I appreciate the technical polish and thoughtful design of Chicken Road. The procedural road generation creates endless unique challenges, and the physics system feels just right – challenging but never unfair. This game sets the standard for mobile gaming.
Chicken Road is perfect for my commute. Quick play sessions that are incredibly satisfying, with enough depth to keep me engaged after months of playing. The character customization options are amazing – my neon punk chicken with sunglasses always makes me smile!
