There is chaos on the farms! Loose chickens are pecking every patch of land clean. They must be quick, however, because the hungry fox is on the prowl. Will you strike at the right time, steal the tastiest foods, and score the most points? Brief game overview Six farms are about to be pecked by chickens. Each round you choose which foods to take, but you often get in each other’s way. The longer a chicken stays on a farm, the more food they can find. At the same time, however, the fox is closing in. Once the fox strikes, you lose everything. During the game, the number of points you get for your food varies. The chicken with the most points at the end of the game wins. —description from the publisher (translated)
