BEHOLD! THE MIRACLE OF LIFE… PACKED INTO CUBES!

Create fantastic creatures in an open-world sandbox game like no other. Explore, craft, and survive—all with the help of your very own creations.

CREATE LIFE, BLOCK BY BLOCK...

Bring living, breathing creatures to life in any size, shape, or combination you can imagine, with genuine personalities and feelings that respond to your actions and the world around them.

GIVE YOUR CREATURES UNIQUE TRAITS AND ABILITIES...

Life blocks have different stats and abilities built into them. Some are strong, some are fast, some shoot blinding ink, some poison enemies… they can all be used to your advantage to make creatures more effective.

WORK WITH YOUR CREATURES TO SCAVENGE, CRAFT, & BUILD...

Your creatures will help you gather resources in order to craft a wide array of tools, items, and structures. The better resources you find, the better the things you can craft!

FIGHT FOR SURVIVAL AS YOU EXPLORE A MYSTERIOUS ISLAND...

Work together with your creature companions to survive the many dangers of CHKN, avoid starvation, and defend your thriving homestead.

GET CREATIVE...

If the risk and survival of Adventure Mode aren’t your thing, you can spend your time in Creative Mode with an unlimited supply of every life block and resource at your fingertips. Create whatever you like with no restrictions.

TELL US YOUR IDEAS...

We’re just beginning with CHKN and we’d like to involve you in this journey as much as possible! Our development is completely open, so you can see what we’re working on and share your ideas with us.
