Or try Erika Hall's surreal and oddly satisfying Clickens — rate chickens yes, doomscroll no.
Great game to play to look interested while on a boring Zoom call.
I just played this for a solid 20 minutes. "Productivity" ruined.
This is a fun one! Everyone I’ve forwarded it to is both glad I did and also now hates me.
I've played it several times now, never have I even gotten close to the score I achieved on my first try
“You rescued the 368 chickens in 2 attempts.
The chickens are very grateful.
Now you have rescued all the chickens you can no longer play the game. Sorry”
…And when I hit Refresh I get the same screen. You can only win once!
it took me 44 ;D
I like the idea that you can only play a game once.
I have been playing this almost daily since Jason posted. Perfect decompression. Today, I actually beat it… and the pop up screen said “the chickens are grateful, but you can’t play the game anymore now. Sorry”. Which is somehow perfect?

This is the name that'll be displayed next to comments you make on kottke.org; your email will not be displayed publicly. I'd encourage you to use your real name (or at least your first name and last initial) but you can also pick something that you go by when you participate in communities online. Choose something durable and reasonably unique (not "Me" or "anon"). Please don't change this often. No impersonation.
Note: I'm letting folks change their display names because the membership service that kottke.org uses collects full names and I thought some people might not want their names displayed publicly here. If it gets abused, I might disable this feature.
If you feel like this comment goes against the grain of the community guidelines or is otherwise inappropriate, please let me know and I will take a look at it.
