Chicken Retail
You are a business chicken, building a retail empire!
Stock the shelves, hire eggployees, upgrade your store and generally cluck about!
But be careful... chickens have to pay rent too, and if you can't make the payment at the end of each month you'll be shut down quicker than you can say "oh my goujon!"

Didn't hear any audio at first, so i turned up my sound, and then i noticed the little speaker icon. I clicked it, My duty was clear now. I would become the greatest chicken retail store owner in the history of chicken retail store owners! Awesome music feature.
Great execution of a fun name. A little overwhelming when first starting, but engaging as hell!
That's so kind, thank you! We couldn't decide on a track so we thought we'd put all 5 in :o
So I didn't realise at first that you could click on the marketing chicken to make customers arrive quicker. That made the first couple of years more of a struggle than they should have been.
Question: Is there any reason to keep a lot of items in stock? I found that if I only had one expensive thing in the shop, there would be a lot of feedback and complaints, but the customers would keep buying it anyway.
Thank you for playing! Yes, customers arrive every so often, but clicking the chicken guarantees arrival of a customer. Auto-cluckers will click for you to get more visitors over time.
Keeping just one high price item in stock will still sell, but keeping more items in stock increases chances of selling anything overall. Customers have a preferred category that they look in first, then they look at all products from cheapest to most expensive. They will only buy one product.
So cheaper products give more sales per minute, and expensive products give fewer sales per minute, but potentially much bigger margins.
You can also click on the coin at any time to get a financial report :)
Thanks again for playing!
