Why we picked this?

Fox Eats Chicks places you right at the top of the food chain. Take control of a cunning fox, and move swiftly through each level gobbling up every bird in sight. Not all of the birds are in view, so you’ll have to search around and use your stealth abilities to hunt down each one. Move quickly because your rating is based purely on speed. The game includes a total of 85 levels.

You’re a fan of twitchy platform games.

You’re impatient. The directional pad can take some getting used to, and you will need to be a master at it to earn a perfect rating.
