Chicken Game for Estonian Agricultural Museum

Why do chickens take dust baths? Are chickens ever bored? What happens inside the coop at night?

We developed an interactive chicken simulation for the Estonian Agricultural Museum’s Rural Curiosity Center. Each chicken has its own personality. The animated chickens follow a daily routine and their behavior is simulated. From time to time, they rely on visitors for support — refilling water, scattering grain and fixing the fence.

Through play visitors discover how everyday decisions directly affect animal welfare and learn what conditions are essential for chickens to thrive. The game translates animal behavior research into an accessible, hands-on learning experience.
