Nothing yet. The boxes are working on it.

She’s a chicken. Manage your expectations.

THE VERY SHORT FIELD MANUAL

You handle the why.

The chicken handles the crossing. She waits on the verge or the grassy middle refuge, then clears both lanes before stopping again.

  1. Open crates in the far meadow. They appear occasionally and disappear if ignored. Some contain absolutely nothing of use.
  2. Select an item, then tap the far meadow. You can also drag an item there. Try your discoveries and watch how she reacts. New objects appear as you progress. Things expire, so timing matters.
  3. Watch her thoughts. Green means yes, yellow means perhaps, red means trouble. The GO marker shows the encouragement needed for this road.
  4. A rooster is a rare, immediate event. Open its crate and he runs behind her. A big push, a short window. You cannot store or place him.

Cross ten roads before time runs out. A traffic bump sends her home and costs time. No feathers permanently harmed.
