About the game

What is Chickapig?

Break your flock of chickapigs free while dodging opponents, hay bales, and an unruly pooping cow in this strategic board game. The first player to get their six chickapigs off the board wins. You must coordinate your chickapigs, hay bales, and the cow to help your chickapigs escape through their goal. At the same time, play defense against your opponents with your pieces, or use the cow to drop a poop in their way. Whenever someone goes over a poop, they must take a poop card which are always bad. There are also daisy cards, which are always good. Chickapig is an abstract game with enough chance to keep everyone competitive.
