Bomb Chicken is a 2D puzzle-platform game developed and published by Nitrome. The game was first released in the Americas and Europe on July 12, 2018, for the Nintendo Switch game console through the Nintendo eShop download service, followed by versions for macOS and Microsoft Windows in April 2019 and one for PlayStation 4 in April 2019. Ports for Android and iOS were released in April 2020.

Set in a Latin American jungle,[2] the player controls a chicken who can lay multiple bombs, which are used to solve puzzles and defeat enemies in order to escape a processing plant run by BFC, a large fast-food chain. Bomb Chicken was well received by critics, who praised its gameplay and presentation, but criticized its short length.
