How it plays

How does Flicky play?

View each stage from a single-screen side perspective. Move Flicky through platforms and ladders, collect every chick, and lead the group to the designated exit.

Tigers patrol the stage and can cost Flicky a life. Progress depends on choosing safe routes, managing the movement of the chicks, and using available objects when necessary. Later stages demand tighter timing and more careful positioning.

Plan your run

What is the best way to play Flicky?

Survey the entire screen before moving, especially when tigers are nearby. Collect chicks in groups when possible so fewer return trips are required.

Use ladders, platforms, and corners to separate the flock from enemy patrols. Do not rush the exit: confirm that every chick has been rescued before committing to the final route.
