Alfred Chicken

Alfred Chicken is a platform video game developed by Twilight and published by Mindscape for the Game Boy. It was later ported to the Amiga, Amiga CD32, NES, and Super NES in 1993 and February 1994, in Europe and North America, respectively. A Europe-exclusive remake of the game, entitled Alfred's Adventure, was developed by Möbius Entertainment and released by SCi for Game Boy Color in June 2000. Another remake, named Alfred Chicken, was also developed by King Monkey, a division of Möbius Entertainment, and released by Sony Computer Entertainment for PlayStation in 2002. Rockstar Games does not own the title's rights, despite buying Möbius later on, as Jason McGann personally held the rights.

Where Alfred Chicken sits on the grid

The grid places every game in the catalogue on measured axes rather than on an opinion. This is where Alfred Chicken lands on each map it has the data for, with the share of the catalogue it beats on each axis.

Percentiles are against the games that carry a reading on that axis, not the whole catalogue: counting a game with no figure as a zero would flatter everything that has one. How the grid works.

What readers say about Alfred Chicken

Reviews written by people who have played it. These are separate from the GamingPickz Score and are never averaged into it: that score comes from thousands of Steam reviews with a sample-size correction, and a handful of unverified ratings would distort it rather than improve it.
