Regroup! Chicken Army is a board game released in 2023 for 2–4 players, 10–20 minutes per game, and ages 6 and up. It was designed by Alejandro Pazarán and its main mechanics are Layering, Pattern Building, and Card Play Conflict Resolution.
In Regroup! Chicken Army you organize your army of chicken warriors or chicken wizards to fight with the other players' armies. Only one chicken army will emerge victorious from battle! Each turn you choose a card and place it over another card on your grid seeking a match between physical or magical attack and defense. Once all the players have placed and organized their card, the round ends and the combat begins. Each player deals or absorbs damage (physical or magical) based on the connected chickens of the same type (sword, shield, wands, barriers). The last player standing, wins! —description from the publisher
Regroup! Chicken Army supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Regroup! Chicken Army is 10–20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Regroup! Chicken Army for ages 6 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
