This game is literally bursting with fun. The Chicken Coop in Cluck 'N' Chuck never fails to take players by surprise when it suddenly pops up, sending chickens flying through the air. Players jump, squeal with delight, and of course, count their chickens. The object is to get rid of all 9 of your chickens of various colors, and the only way to do that is by tossing them on top of the Chicken Coop, one at a time, based on repeated rolls of the color die. There's good news and bad news to that die. Being in possession of it is your only chance to rid yourself of chickens, by rolling a matching color. But if the Chicken Coop - a time bomb of sorts - blows while you still have the die, some of those chickens will be coming home to roost. And here's the big catch - you have to keep rolling until you roll a color that doesn't match one of the chickens in your front line. It's not like you get to say, 'I've had enough,' and pass the die by choice. When you do pass it, another player immediately begins rolling and chucking, fast and focused, enjoying the glory while taking the risk that the Chicken Coop is about to blow. And blow it will. You can count on it. For 2 to 4 players.
