Fox and Chicken – Jona’s Bargain Basement Review

We return to Jona’s Bargain Basement to be shown the cracking game of cunning that is Fox and Chicken

It’s quiet down there, all too quiet is something hiding down there? Should you be afraid of it, or should it fear you? Will you crack under the pressure or slyly have a tasty meal?

Jona’s Bargain Basement is here to discuss games which may appeal to the budget conscious among us or those who just love a bargain.

So pull up a crate, camping chair or over-turn a bucket and prepare to learn about Fox and Chicken.

Strange sounds are emanating from the room below, hushed tones and shuffling noises… wait, did you just hear a monster? Well yes, you did and if you can summon the courage to venture down there Jona will tell you all about them!
