We received a free copy of Chicken War™ the Strategic Guessing Game from Think Fun to play with and Review. Opinions are our own.

We’ve always been a family that enjoys playing board games. Now with the whole family home every day during the quarantine/isolation we have been playing a lot more. Thankfully Think Fun has supplied us with a new game to help pass the time and frustrate me to no end. Let me explain.

Chicken War™ is a strategic guessing game where you battle other players to see if you can assemble a chicken army before the other players can guess your chicken leader. But there is a catch, there is always a catch. In order to have a full chicken army every one of the recruits has to share 2 and only two traits with the leader. I played this with Andrew and over and over again I thought I had everything right only to find that one of the recruits shared 3 things in common. When that happens you have to pick a new leader and then start assembling the army once again. I think this happened 5 times for me on one game. And thought that I was really good at strategy games.

Andy ended up winning that one. He has played several times with his sister and they both enjoy the game a lot. We have not played as a whole family but that might be tonight’s activity. The full description of the game is below pus information on how to purchase it. You can pre-order it from Amazon.com (through our affiliate link) as it is shipping on May 4th.

Chicken War™
Strategic Guessing Game
The farm has officially broken out in chicken warfare, and factions are quickly forming! Whose Army will be victorious? Chicken War is a fun, unique deduction game for 2 to 4 players. Each of the 81 Chicken Tiles features a unique combination of 4 different characteristics.
Begin by secretly selecting one Chicken to serve as your Leader. You must recruit 9 more Chickens into your Yard to build a winning Army. But beware–in order to make the cut, your recruits must share two—and only two—characteristics with your Leader. You will need to be clever, because at any moment your opponents can lob an Egg at you if they think they have discovered the secret identity of your Leader, and if their intel is correct, you’re out of the game!

Sharpen your wits and prepare to ruffle some feathers, because Chicken War has been declared
