Rooster Chase is a game set in Barcelos, a northern region of Portugal where King Dinis, Queen Isabel and Princess Constança reside in their castle. The royal family owns a rooster farm which becomes the centre of an exciting adventure. One day, due to the negligence of an employee, the gate of the farm is left open and the Roosters seized the opportunity to escape and invade the nearby village. Realizing the chaos caused by the escaped Roosters, King Dinis takes immediate action. He calls upon the people of the village, offering rewards to those who can successfully catch and return the Roosters to the farm. This creates a frenzy among the villagers as they eagerly participate in the rooster chase. To catch the Roosters, the villagers employ a clever tactic. They use the worms as bait to attract the Roosters and lure them back to the farm. Armed with the worms, the villagers strategically placed the worms to entice the Roosters and swiftly capture them. In Rooster Chase, players must outsmart each other in their quest to catch the most Roosters. Will you be able to master the art of using worms as bait and emerge victorious in the rooster chase? Rooster Chase is played over 2 rounds, with each player taking five turns per round to catch a total of 10 Roosters. The Roosters come in different types and each rooster has their own preferences when it comes to food. Although Roosters eat any worm, each as two types that they find most appealing. During your turn, you must spend the worm to catch a rooster. After successfully catching a rooster, you may have the opportunity to claim an objective. These objectives are based on specific patterns of worms or sets of Roosters, and by completing them you earn victory points. -description from designer
