Gurugram, Haryana, June 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

In response to the surging demand for accessible and engaging mobile games across India, the widely played Chicken Road Game has formally announced its expansion within the country. This move comes as the developers aim to reach the core of India’s fast-evolving mobile gaming community by offering a lightweight, intuitive, and entertaining game that is already resonating with casual gamers nationwide.

>>> Learn More About Chicken Road Game>>>

As one of the fastest-growing entertainment sectors, India’s mobile gaming market is forecasted to exceed USD 8.6 billion in value by 2027. With over 600 million mobile users, the country offers a fertile ground for innovative digital games that combine fun with engagement. Chicken Road Game aims to meet this opportunity by providing short, skill-based sessions suitable for on-the-go play, whether users are commuting, taking breaks at work, or simply relaxing at home.

“Our mission has always been to deliver gaming experiences that are not only fun but fair and accessible to all. India’s diversity and digital enthusiasm make it an ideal home for Chicken Road’s next phase of growth,” said a spokesperson from the Chicken Road development team.

A Game that Blends Simplicity with Strategy

At its core, Chicken Road is a fast-paced arcade-style mobile game where players guide a cartoon chicken across an obstacle-filled road. The challenge lies in avoiding hazards such as fire traps and navigating shifting paths, all while collecting points. The longer a player survives, the higher the score.

The gameplay may appear simple on the surface, but as the game progresses, players require quick reflexes and strategic thinking to avoid pitfalls. There’s no need for tutorials or lengthy onboarding — the game’s minimalist controls and clean interface allow players to dive straight into the action.

Developers emphasize that Chicken Road’s model is skill-based rather than chance-based, aligning with responsible gaming practices that prioritize player choice and interaction.

Tailored for the Indian Audience

To better serve the Indian market, the Chicken Road team has introduced several localized features and updates, such as:

  • Multi-language support in Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, and more.
  • Low-data mode for users on limited mobile internet.
  • Compatibility with budget smartphones, ensuring gameplay remains smooth across devices.
  • In-game notifications aligned with Indian festivals and regional events, creating a culturally relevant experience.

User data from early testing in Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities such as Delhi, Jaipur, Lucknow, and Bengaluru reveals high session engagement and return play, especially among users aged 18–35. Notably, the game has attracted users beyond traditional metro hubs, showing strong performance in semi-urban regions.

Commitment to Fair Play and User Trust

As digital games face increasing scrutiny over user data, security, and play ethics, the Chicken Road Game platform has proactively taken steps to ensure transparency and user safety. These include:

  • No in-game gambling or betting mechanics

  • No forced ads between sessions

  • Optional session time reminders to promote mindful play
  • In-app reporting and support for technical issues or feedback

“We believe gaming should be a safe space for everyone,” said the developer’s representative. “That’s why we’ve made it a priority to provide clean, ad-minimized gameplay while putting the player in control.”

Encouraging Skill, Not Spending

Unlike many modern mobile games that rely on in-app purchases or randomized rewards, Chicken Road allows players to progress based on gameplay performance. Its non-pay-to-win design ensures that users who build skill over time see greater progression and results.

This approach also aligns with the increasing call across India for transparent, ethical gaming practices, especially in a mobile ecosystem where young users make up a significant share of players.

Global Roadmap and Future Outlook

The development team behind Chicken Road Game has indicated that its expansion into India is part of a broader push across Asia and other emerging digital economies. Plans for future updates include:

  • Leaderboards and friendly competitions

  • Collaborations with local content creators

  • Limited-time seasonal maps inspired by Indian festivals

Beta versions of these features are currently under testing, and official announcements are expected later this year.

With a focus on fast gameplay, player-first design, and mobile optimization, the game has gained popularity across multiple countries for its accessible and rewarding user experience. The game does not involve chance mechanics or wagering, making it suitable for a wide audience of casual players.

A Day with Jimmy O. Yang in Hong Kong

Join the Hollywood star and comedian on a whirlwind day exploring the rich cultural history, incredible great outdoors and world-class culinary scene of his hometown

Jimmy applies gold foil to the Golden Deer at Man Mo Temple

HONG KONG, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hollywood star and Hong Kong-born comedian Jimmy O. Yang (Jimmy) recently returned to his hometown, bringing his celebrated stand-up comedy to local audiences for the first time. Beyond the stage, he took the opportunity to rediscover the vibrancy, culture and contrasts of the city he calls home. From ancient temples and breathtaking natural scenery to sizzling Cantonese barbecue and renowned Asia’s top cocktail spot, Jimmy’s day in Hong Kong became a journey through the city’s most defining experiences, inviting others to embark on their own adventures.

Cultural Immersion in the Heart of the City

Jimmy immersed himself in the rich heritage of Hong Kong at the historic Man Mo Temple in Sheung Wan, which has stood proud for nearly 180 years. Here, he took part in a series of time-honoured rituals, including touching the Writing Brush on the statue of Man Cheong, the ancient Chinese God of Literature; handling the sword of Guan Di, a third-century Chinese general; and making a heartfelt wish by applying gold foil to the temple’s golden deer statue. These quiet moments offered Jimmy a personal connection to his heritage, while also reflecting the deep spiritual roots embedded into the modern metropolis.

From Skyline to Scenic Vistas

Jimmy takes Crystal + cable car with Ngong Ping 360

Jimmy made his way to Ngong Ping 360 during the day, where he soared above lush greenery and dramatic mountain vistas aboard a Crystal+ cable car, adorned with special welcome decals for the occasion. Jimmy strolled through Ngong Ping Village and then embarked on the invigorating climb of 268 steps to reach the majestic Big Buddha. From this vantage point, he admired the verdant expanses of the city, marveling at how nature is so close to urban life.

Flavours That Tell a Story

Jimmy enjoys Cha Siu in HK

Jimmy visited a neighborhood favourite eatery, where he sampled a delightful spread of classic local dishes, including succulent pork belly, tender pork jowl char siu, Maotai soy sauce chicken, roast goose and more.

The day continues at the Asia’s best bar. He savoured an array of signature cocktails that highlighted the bar’s innovative flair, complemented by smoky olives that offered a unique twist to his tasting experience. This vibrant setting allowed Jimmy to fully embrace the elegance and energy that make Hong Kong’s nightlife truly exceptional.

Experience Jimmy’s Hong Kong

“From savouring char siu at a local favorite to sipping world-class cocktails in the Asia’s best bar, Hong Kong’s food scene is an adventure in itself. Every meal, whether it’s a humble street-side delight or a globally acclaimed cocktail, tells the story of a city that thrives on flavor, energy, and unforgettable contrasts — all within a single day. As someone who was born here, I can attest to the vibrant tapestry of tastes that shaped my childhood,” says Jimmy O. Yang. “Having spent my early years in Hong Kong, I’ve always felt the vibrant pulse of my hometown, a place where tradition and innovation coexist beautifully. In just one day, you can immerse yourself in centuries of heritage and the wonders of nature, all while experiencing the dynamic spirit that makes Hong Kong truly one of a kind. This city will always hold a special place in my heart.”
