Game description

It consists of 24 large egg-shaped plates with twelve pictures of chickens, rabbits, hedgehogs, flowers and other things from the chicken yard, two of which are identical, as well as twelve octagonal plates with the same motifs, which are placed face down in the middle of the table. Now you lay out a course from the mixed egg tiles around the hidden octagon tiles. Each player gets a large wooden chicken of one color with a tail feather of the same color. The chickens are placed evenly on the egg plates.

The player turns over an octagonal tile; if it shows the same picture as the egg lying in front of the player's chicken, he may place his chicken on this egg tile and continue playing. If you turn up a wrong tile, you put it back and it is the next turn. If you come to stand directly behind a strange chicken while advancing, you have to reveal the picture belonging to the next free tile and when you jump over you get all the tail feathers of the chickens you skipped over. Whoever collects all feathers first wins the game.

Since the type of locomotion is based on the principle of memory , even the smallest ones are equal to the adults, especially in the third or fourth round of the game. But also pure adult groups have fun with the game, to which the graphics contribute in particular.

There are now with bitch wave Entenkacke also an expansion set for up to 6 players.
