A brisk card game of chicken-themed one-upmanship where you fight for majorities across ten different glamorous commodities. Play cards to hold the most, or second-most, of each type when scoring hits. Three scoring rounds land as trigger cards surface from the deck, and its share-based math will feel familiar to anyone who has played Union Pacific.

Who it's for

Players who like fast, interactive majority games with a share-scoring bite, and enjoy sweating the unpredictable timing of scoring rounds.

Not for you if…

You want deep strategy or dislike luck in when scoring hits. The whimsical chicken theme also won't win over everyone.

Vibe's take

A quick majority scrap with unpredictable scoring timing, where committing to the right commodities at the right moment is everything.
