CHicken Chase

When Chicken leg it uphIll!

(Krawall vorm Stall)

A pretty hill serves for a chicken race track, stamina for moving is provided by the feeding track equipped with one race card per square. Each player starts the race with two hens and 15 chicks, only the hen race, the race uphill directed by the race cards. The chicks are needed on the feeding track. In turn each player decides on one of three actions, A, B or C. Action A means three rolls of dice, with 3, 2 and then 1 die, respectively. In each roll you can use the numbers singly or combine them in any way. For each number generated you place a chick on the corresponding square of the feeding track. When you place the 3^rd chick in such a square you hand all chicks back to their owners, take the feeding card and lay out a new one. Then you can play a card from your hand to move a hen. Action B and C are without dice rolls. For action B you may play any number of race cards up to a total value of 8 and move one of your hens uphill, for action C you can play one card for each of your hens and move them both accordingly. If a hen at the end of its move encounters another hen, this hen goes back downhill to the next free spot. A hen may never enter a barred spot and you need not reach the finish with the exact number of steps. If you have no chick left in stock, you can relocate one on the feeding track. You win the game when you have both hens in the finish area at the same time.

In contrary to the completely chance-dominated prequel Kiki Ricky in this game the choice of dice combination and the placement of chicken allow some tactics and introduce variety to result in a charming family game.
