Chicken Road began as a passion project in 2020 when our founders, Emily and James, noticed how difficult it was to find mobile games that appealed to both their children and themselves. After spending countless evenings testing games that were either too complex for children or too simplistic for adults, they decided to create something that bridged this gap.

The name "Chicken Road" was inspired by a family joke during a countryside holiday, where they constantly had to slow down for chickens crossing rural lanes. This humorous everyday moment sparked the central concept of our game – guiding characters through increasingly creative environments with simple yet engaging mechanics.

What started as a small team working from a converted garage in Glasgow has now grown into Alder Grove Studio, a boutique game development company dedicated to creating joyful, accessible gaming experiences. The first version of Chicken Road launched in 2022 with just 10 levels, but its popularity quickly grew through word-of-mouth. Today, Chicken Road has evolved into a beloved mobile experience with over 50 unique levels, each designed to delight players of all ages.
