"Cheeky Chooks" is an absolute gem of a game! It’s charming, quirky, and hilariously self-aware in the best ways. The premise of becoming the ultimate "Chook rancher" might sound simple, but this game manages to turn chicken-raising into a delightful mix of strategic empire-building, humor, and heart. The developers clearly poured love and creativity into every aspect, from the cheeky tone of the descriptions to the actual gameplay mechanics.
The variety of chooks is honestly one of the most entertaining aspects—there's something so satisfying about unlocking new types and seeing how they add to the chaos of your ranch. The claim of "probably millions" might be cheeky, but the variety definitely keeps things fresh. Each chook having its own personality, name, and even a sentient AI just adds another layer of immersion, making every little feathery addition to the ranch feel unique and meaningful.
The gameplay itself strikes a great balance between casual fun and engaging challenges. Building up your "Henfrastructure" while ensuring your chooks are happy, healthy, and entertained requires thoughtful planning and creativity. The freedom to design your ranch exactly how you want—with sandbox building and rotational freedom—means you can really make it your own little chicken paradise (or chaos haven, if that’s your vibe). But it’s not all sunshine and scratch feed—overcrowding and neglect have real consequences, so there’s a genuine sense of responsibility tied to your ranch's success.
The seasonal changes, weather mechanics, and day/night cycles are fantastic touches that keep the gameplay dynamic. They also make you feel like you're actually managing a real farm rather than just clicking away in a static simulation. And let’s not overlook the minigames and chook facts—they’re such a fun way to break up the main gameplay and offer a bit of trivia to boot. Plus, the events keep you coming back for more, ensuring that things never get stale.
What really makes this game stand out, though, is the humor and heart. From the tongue-in-cheek warnings about moral bankruptcy to the goofy pun-laden descriptions, it’s clear the developers had a blast making this game. And the fact that it’s entirely free—no ads, no in-app purchases—is just the cherry on top. It’s rare to find a game that offers so much content and charm without asking for anything in return.
Overall, "Cheeky Chooks" is an absolute must-play for anyone who loves lighthearted management sims with a lot of personality. It’s equal parts relaxing and chaotic, with plenty to discover and laugh about along the way. Whether you're a casual gamer or someone who loves diving deep into the mechanics, there's something here for everyone. So yeah, I’m officially Chook Crazy—and you should be too! 🐔✨
Hi, im trying to donlowd this game from playstore, but i cant find the game, is it not available any more? are there any other ways to get it on android? ty
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE CHEEKY CHOOKS! I have been playing this game ever since I first got my computer- over a year ago!
Its lots of fun, you get to create your own little chicken villiage and collect loads and loads of colorful chickens like critters! I love SOOO many of the different designs! I also love that even if you forget to log on and "feed" them, They will still alive and well next time you hop on. It even tells you how many days, hours, and minutes its been since your last login. Theres even a few little mini games within the game itself. Theres one where some of your Cheeky Chooks have put on hats- and you have to find all the chooks wearing hats- Another one is to Smash the pumpkins that started sprouting up on you farm randomly.
Anyway- if you like farming, virtual pet gams, or even like building games- Check out Cheeky Chooks! Its alot of fun and you'll soon be trying to collect all the different chickens!
it's free, it has cute graphics that don't get destroyed on the lowest setting of the game, and that means I can run it on my government laptop with NO problem.. also,, building game where i can put the buildings anywhere i want??? hell yeah!!!! my new favorite game. so glad i found this!!!
I didn't expect to appreciate this game so much. The people behind this game are wonderful and I'm glad they exist. The fact that this is a free game with no ads or anything on the app store is a breath of fresh air and I just appreciate this so much. It's not even my kind of game but every time I see something like this I'm reminded that if you wanna find something beautiful in gaming you often have to look to the indie dev space.
i love this game so much silly chickens
arm64-v8a is for 64 bits architecture. try arm-v7a
hi! i wanted to try this game on android, but the zip archive makes it hard to install.

Sorry for the late reply! Mileage may vary but afaik it should work as long as you can access the Play Store. Hope this help! :)
great game, ive always enjoyed first person shooters more than this sort of thing but this is probably one of my favorite games, its relaxing to play something where you dont have to be constantly alert.
Hi! I'm loving this game but I stumbled upon this beautiful map but have no idea if this building still exists anymore. Is it still available with the newest version of the game? Please let me know! Thanks so much.
Hello great to hear you are loving the game! That is actually Ol' Popahkays Hut, a Legendary Witch Chook that was temporarily available in the game for a Halloween event along with a few others.
The bad news is we had to ditch the idea of timed events.
The good news is we came up with something much cooler, which we are currently working on and going to release real soon. :D
If you join our Discord we make announcements about updates, and other cool Chook/Trilum related goss. :D
Totally, thank you so much for letting me know! I look forward to all the new stuff you have planned.
This is freakin pretty! my family adore this game and i check everyday for my cheeky chooks! <3 i've played for more than a month a you NEED to play it either!!! aaaa
Edit: sadly, i got bored lol

If you like management sims, chickens, and cute stuff, then play it. You won't regret it until you should've had dinner an hour ago but you're so busy with your third barn you're like damn I need a watering area now... my brown chook thirsteh

@trilumstudios this game is so cute!
Thank you!
You're welcome, TrilumStudios!
How do you transfer your save from one computer to another om steam? And recently the pumpkin crushing thing is glitching, when I click on the red squire and then click accept it. The thing closes and the red squire reappeared on the right side on the screen. Then I did the same proses but when I clicked accept the second time, the timer stated and at the bottom in the middle it said I already had 153 pumpkins. When the timer had hit 48 seconds it did not stop, instead it continue counting I clicked Exit and it did not close and normally it popped the score thing up and tells you how much gold you get for the score. I had to completely shut down the application and bring it back up.
Could you pleas make transferring of chickens to different coops less tedious pleas
Other then that THE GAME IS SOOOOO F****** GOOD
@TrilumStudios
Sorry for the late reply we have been busy as heck on the latest update (which you should totally chook out)! You can find your save files here:
C:\Users\...\AppData\LocalLow\Trilum Studios\Cheeky Chooks
However in the update we literally just pushed out Steam Cloud Saves have been added to the game, so once you have updated it should automatically move your saves! :)
I love this game so much; played around 2018. Just popped in to see if it got updates and...im happy to see there are! I like the time based part, it makes you want to come back to check on money you earned (and on your chooks). Id be happy to see spin offs too, like say a dairy farm. X3
Thanks! You should check out the latest update, we added a tonne of stuff we think you'll love all over again! :D
Oh yay, thats wonderful to hear!
i downloaded the chicken gif
Me too
how download
lol
right click it then press "save image as" then boom type in the name you want then press enter (on windows) just right click
This game is great! Very well done, polished, and feels very complete so far. I've put a couple hours in already, and there's still a lot more to do. I have a feeling I'm going to spend forever just tweaking my farm to make it look pretty.
Also, i have a question,
Why does the happyness rating go down when you hatch a new Chook?
Oh, and it would be handy if you could see what events could happen like pumpkin bash.
Best game i've played out here, 10/10 rating, really like the art and the fact that it's still fun to play while not idle.

10/10
I haven't played it yet, but it might be fun & interesting from the screenshots that I've looked at here on this game's page.
I seriously do not know how to download it.....
No idea as to why you randomly replied to me, but you're going to have to talk to me via Twitter, www.twitter.com/VampireLord1024. Make sure to check the pinned Tweet at the top of my Twitter profile so you'll know how to send me a direct message, as I do not talk via comments, sorry!
Made a gameplay video of it!
Hey thanks! We have an update just round the corner, so keep a beak out for it!
Really been enjoying this. So relaxing and cute. The mini-games are a joy. xD
Okay super fun. Super cute. Run very well. I love it

I`ts time to update the banner image =)
omigosh... I think I updated, and forgot to save. :s
Thank you for pointing this out. :D
THIS GAME IS VERY NICE! ^^ I LOVE IT <3
Heya! experiencing what I at least think is a small bug, not sure where else to report it but here!
It says I have a notification for the Legends quest screen, and has done for the majority of the game, but when I actually click on the tab t's blank. A reinstall did nothing, though I haven't tried backing up my files, uninstalling entirely, then putting them back after a reinstall, but I'm not entirely confident in knowing how to do so. ^^''
Christmas update?
where are you ?
please?
more updates it kills me to have beaten the game already i really like your game you guys would be awesome to add a ton of more teirs.
I uh... broke the game. First time i played it..... So, my computer started lagging out due to some other things i had turned on... So i exited out of the game. By clicking the X, not any in-game buttons. When I turned it back on, the fence and surrounding stuff was invisible, and i can't get it to reappear.... It's still very much playable, but either way it's a bug X/
And just after i posted that, it started working again. Welp.
Hey, at least it IS working!
Im LOVING it so far. Really hope theres a thanksgiving and christmas event. it was fun gaathering the legendaries
I reviewed this for my site, https://scoffingames.com/2018/11/13/cheeky-chooks-beta-review/ . I really liked it, but I hope more things are added to keep me engaged. There needs to be more variety and reasons to keep playing it instead of waiting for chooks to lay eggs in late-game to complete tasks :-) Thank you for making this!
