Baldur's Gate 3 features a seemingly endless amount of Easter eggs, side quests, and things to do outside the main mission objectives. It's no surprise that the game can, for some gamers, last for 100's of hours. Players can spend their time getting more personal with their companions, crafting potions and powerful brews, and even just explore places that they've yet to visit.
If they're not playing a campaign with friends, seeking out loot upgrades, or heading down the golden path, players will find tons of funny and lighthearted side content. One of the early versions that players will probably run into is the Chasing Chickens game located inside the Goblin Camp. For a rundown on how to win the game and a some gold with it, just keep reading below (or check out the how-to video).
See the video below:
Getting To The Goblin Camp
Players will have to progress the story into Act 1 in order to access and complete the Chicken Chasin' game. The Goblin Camp is located west of The Blighted Village, just across a short bridge. Important note: don't fight the goblins in the area, you'll have to talk your way in with some lucky dice rolls in order to participate in Chicken Chasin'. It goes without saying, but, if you kill Krolla, the goblin that runs the chicken game, you'll lose your chance to play. Once players enter the Goblin Camp, which is more of a decrepit castle than a camp, they'll see lots of goblins, other enemies, and an out-of-place human named Volo, who is a bard that is telling a story. You will have to speak to Volo first, and after that you can talk to Krolla, who is just to the left of where Volo stands.
Startin' Chicken Chasin'
After talking to Volo, there are a few things a player needs to start the Chicken Chasin' game, run by Krolla the goblin. First off, they'll need at least 30 gold to play the game. You may or may not win your bet, depending on whether you pass a skill check after the game. The second thing you'll need is some quick hands, because that last little chicken is fast. Quick note, if you happen to talk to the Owlbear mother and let her live, her Owlbear cub will be located here instead of the chicken. Whether it's a chicken or an Owlbear cub, the game will still playout the same from here.
Winnin' Chicken Chasin'
The basic strategy to winning Chicken Chasin' is to stand behind the chicken and physically "nudge" it towards the two posts located in the back of the course. One tip is to move some of the barrels and wood around to help block the chicken so it only goes the way you intend. If you mess up, the chicken will bail and you'll have to pay another 30 gold in order to play again. Once you've ushered the chicken through the two posts, everything will light up and, like a game show, you'll be announced the winner.
