**First appearance:**

**Attack:**
None, Asteroids! waves allow them to split into smaller ones

**Reward:**15-20 Coins (*The Next Wave*), 1 Coin (*Revenge of the Yolk*)

**Points:**500 (*The Next Wave*), 50 \* Chapter + 50 (smaller ones), 150 medium-sized ones), or 350 (bigger ones)

**Description:** Asteroids are common obstacles in the series. Although they have no attacks on their own (except for Asteroids! wave asteroids), they're still dangerous, since they're fast and they come in huge numbers.

Asteroids saw use in 30% of the waves in *Chicken Invaders*. In *The Next Wave*, they had two waves in each chapter, but they also had their own chapter. In *Revenge of the Yolk*, they had one wave in most chapters (except for Chapter 2), and they had their own chapter. Since *Ultimate Omelette*, they've been strangely absent.

**Appearance:** Their appearance is simple. They're big clumps of rock, which are colored either red or gray. The color does not make them different.

In *The Next Wave**s Christmas edition, they became snowballs (gray asteroids) and ice comets (red asteroids).*****Revenge of the Yolk**s Christmas edition turned gray asteroids into snowballs, while it didn't alter red asteroids. The Easter edition does not alter them at all.

### Chest

**Health:**
100
**First appearance:**
Revenge of the Yolk
**Rarity:**
Common
**Attack:**
None

**Reward:**1-5 Coins

**Description:** Chests are special versions of asteroids, only present in the Bonus Challenge! waves in *Revenge of the Yolk*. They were replaced with Alien Container waves in its sequels. Their health and score are constant, that is, they always stay at 100 and 1000 respectively. They still speed up every chapter just like regular asteroids. They drop much more coins compared to regular asteroids.

**Appearance:** Their appearance is simple. They're colored chests.

The Christmas edition turns them into presents, and the Easter edition turns them into egg baskets.

### Comet

**Description:** Comets are similar to ordinary asteroids, except for that they're much, much bigger than them. The Narrator claimed that they go faster than the speed of light, and convinced the Hero to go along them. They only appear in their dedicated chapter, Comet Chase.

The editions do not alter them at all.

## Trivia

* Their usage has been decreasing with each game. *Chicken Invaders* has 3 waves in each chapter dedicated to them. *The Next Wave* had 2 waves in each chapter and a chapter dedicated to them. *Revenge of the Yolk* had 2 wave in almost every chapter and two chapters dedicated to them. *Ultimate Omelette* only had one chapter dedicated to them. And then there's *Cluck of the Dark Side*, which only has them appear in 3 waves.
