Ways to Play
Dive into casual idle merging across evolving stages, from Earth farms to cosmic challenges in Chicken Evolution!

Earth (Starter Stage)
Begin your evolution journey on familiar farmlands, learning the basics of merging and resource management in this welcoming introductory mode.
Earth mode eases players into the game with simple merges and abundant eggs. Focus on building your initial flock while discovering the joys of chicken evolution. As you progress, unlock basic mutations and prepare for interplanetary adventures.
This stage emphasizes tutorial elements, guiding you through tapping, merging, and upgrading. Experiment freely without pressure, as Earth's bountiful resources allow for quick recoveries from mistakes.
EARTH ONBOARDING TIPS
Merge early and often to build momentum.
Tap poops for bonus resources.
Upgrade egg spawns to accelerate growth.
Explore the shop for basic boosters.

World
Unlock this global stage after mastering Earth, introducing more chickens, diverse environments, and increased merging complexity.
World mode expands your farm to continental scales, with cultural chicken variants adding flavor to your flock. Manage larger boards and more frequent egg spawns while dealing with weather events that affect production.
Progress requires strategic merging, as space becomes a factor. Unlock chains inspired by world myths, blending evolution with folklore for unique mutants.
Universe
Enter the cosmos after worldly conquests, where rarer forms await behind late-tier merge gates, challenging your long-term strategy.
Universe mode introduces zero-gravity mechanics, allowing for floating merges and stellar phenomena that boost evolutions. Manage cosmic radiation for mutation chances while navigating asteroid fields for resources.
This stage gates progress behind high-tier merges, rewarding dedicated players with spectacular space-themed chickens and galaxy-wide bonuses.

Mars
Colonize the red planet with variant chickens adapted to harsh conditions, introducing pacing twists like dust storms and rover events.
Mars mode adds survival elements, with limited oxygen requiring efficient merging. Unlock Martian mutations that thrive in low gravity, offering new strategic layers to your flock management.
Pacing slows slightly here, emphasizing careful resource allocation and timed upgrades to weather environmental challenges.

Pluto
The ultimate challenge on this icy dwarf planet, featuring scarcity mechanics and high-tier merges for the most powerful cosmic chickens.
Pluto mode tests endurance with frozen events and limited spawns, forcing players to maximize every merge. Unlock elite mutations that define endgame strategies.
High-tier focus creates intense, rewarding sessions where each decision impacts your flock's survival in the cold void.

Daily Loop & Short Sessions
Experience the perfect balance of quick bursts and long-term idle progress in Chicken Evolution's flexible play style.
5–10 min bursts: Quick merges, tap sessions, daily rewards. Idle progress: Offline accumulation, auto-evolutions, resource buildup over hours or days.
This dual system allows for meaningful progress in short plays while rewarding longer sessions with chain merges and event participation.

Offline Progress
Your farm keeps evolving even when you're away, within game limits to ensure fair play.
While offline, chickens continue producing coins and poops at a reduced rate. Eggs may hatch automatically if auto-features are unlocked. Return to claim accumulated resources and see what mutations occurred.
Limits prevent infinite growth: Max 24 hours of offline progress, scaled by your current stage and upgrades. This encourages regular check-ins without punishing casual players.
Boost offline efficiency with specific upgrades, turning absences into opportunities for surprise evolutions and resource windfalls.
