The Social Chicken Rush FAQ
​​​
Get ready for the ultimate city-wide showdown! We’re hosting The Chicken Rush & Interactive Games, and it’s going to be legendary.
​
The Mission:
You’ll be placed in teams to hunt down Sham who will be dressed as a "chicken" hiding in a pub or bar in Central London. You’ll have 2 hours to track him using a live map that shrinks over time whilst completing challenges to climb the leaderboard!
​
Think Mario Kart chaos, sabotage mischief and a dash of hide-and-seek mayhem - all rolled into one.
The Reward: As with most events at the Social Gathering Company, there is of course a prize for the winning team: A £50 bar tab!
​
The Evening:
​
The Interactive Afterparty: The fun doesn't stop at the finish line. We’re heading straight to a bar where interactive games (darts, shuffleboard and pool) are already booked. Spend the evening competing in high-tech games, grabbing drinks and celebrating.
​​
Price: £35 per person... or grab a buddy and get 2 tickets for £60 (£30 each)

Gameplay Overview - What are you going to be doing?
​
Chicken Rush
​
Chicken Rush is the GPS-powered scavenger hunt where you race to complete hilarious challenges, track down the “Chicken,” and sabotage rivals with sneaky in-game weapons. Think Mario Kart chaos, trick-or-treating mischief, and a dash of hide-and-seek mayhem - all rolled into one.
​
Whether you arrive with friends or solo, you’ll be matched into a squad ready to cause some playful trouble. Along the way, you’ll unlock photo and video tasks and collect points as the map shrinks and the pressure builds. It’s high-energy, creative, and unpredictable - no two games ever play out the same.
​
When the final countdown ends, we gather together at the afterparty to swap stories, relive the funniest clips and crown the winners.
​
More Questions?
​
Can we drink while playing?
​
Yes. Please drink responsibly. But this is a race to find a Chicken hiding in a pub or bar, so you have a couple of opportunities.
​
What happens if it rains?
​
You get wet. Or you hide in a pub.
Can we use public transport?
​
Yes! However, we've found teams rarely use it. A game area (the big out-of-bounds circle) is usually a max. 30-minute walk across, so teams don't need to cover that much ground and walking is enough.
​
How do the challenges work?
​
There are around 20 challenges. Teams complete them and send in photos/videos. The Chicken then decides how many points they deserve while hiding. Examples include recreating an iconic album cover or hugging a stranger for 30 seconds.
All photos/videos are uploaded through the web app and scored in real-time.
​
What does the chicken do?
​
At the start, the Chicken gets a five-minute head start to hide in a pub/bar. During the hunt, the Chicken receives all challenge submissions, decides if they're worthy of points and watches teams closing in on the map.
​
How does the location tracker work?
​
A blue circle on the map shows the area where the chicken is hiding. Every two minutes, the blue circle shrinks - gradually revealing the hiding spot. It’s similar to Fortnite or 'Battle Royale' games. Usually the Chicken gets found in the last 30 minutes
​
Can I be in a team with a group of friends for the Chicken Rush game?
​
Absolutely, we’ll be sending out more details on this close to the time.
Interactive Games
​
We’ve booked an area in a bar where we’ll have exclusive access to play Interactive Games including Darts, Shuffleboard and Pool for 2hours 45mins.
​​
These games will be fun and you’ll take turns to play them.
​
Prize for the Winner
​​
The winning team for Chicken Rush will receive a £50 bar tab and winners medals!
​​
​
Concerned About Gameplay or Anxiety?
​
The game is designed to be fun and silly. If you are struggling at any point, you can stop and take a break! If you’d like to be in a team where they are walking throughout rather than running at points, we can absolutely match you up with others who’d like to do the same.
​
Challenges
​
Whilst you hunt to find the Chicken you’ll be walking around Central London for up to 2 hours, stopping along the way to complete your challenges.
​
The challenges in the Chicken Rush game are designed to be fun, silly and interactive. It’s a combination of physical challenges that get you moving, mental games that stretch your imagination and spark your competitive streak
