Duck which has been farmed for slaughter and sale as meat is called poultry.

Wild duck which has been killed by hunters from necessity, or by sporting shooters for enjoyment of the sport, is called game.

No. A chicken is a domesticated bird. Game birds are not a specific bird, they are birds that are hunted, there is not much sport in hunting a chicken. Non migratory game birds are grouse, Quail and pheasant. Migratory game birds are ducks and geese.

There are breeds of chickens called Cornish Game hens but they are not wild nor are they hunted and now you can buy "game hens" in stores but they are just very young chickens of various breeds slaughtered early to provide a single serving of roasted poultry.

Game or wild chicken as opposed to farm raised can be eaten. You will find that the texture and flavor is different. Wild chicken is not as mild/bland in taste and the meat is leaner.

A goose is a domesticated animal that is classed as poultry, not game. Game animals tend to be wild and not domesticated.
