How to Play: Big Chicken (card game)

About BIG CHICKEN, from BoardGameGeek:

Big Chicken is a dynamic and fiercely competitive card game designed to play the same for 3 to 6 players (with a 2-player variant). This medium-weight game requires an adaptive strategy as the game unfolds. The goal is to get rid of your cards as fast as possible, score low, and set your opponents with extra points using special bonuses and clever play. While luck determines the cards you receive, victory hinges on cunning and planning. Get ready for intense gameplay, spirited banter, and a lot of fun! Will you end up the Golden Egg, or the Rotten Egg? Though the game requires strategy, it is still fast-paced, and the rules are designed to encourage good-natured ribbing, daring boasts, lively table talk, and a bit of cutthroat play. BIG CHICKEN invites fun social interaction. The dynamics of the game encourage competitive banter and table talk, but players also enjoy the excitement and camaraderie of the “big plays” - regardless of who makes them. Since no partners are required, and because the strategy is the same for 3, 4, 5, or 6 players (with some variation for 2), plus the game is compact, this versatility makes BIG CHICKEN perfect for gamers to always carry with them. BIG CHICKEN's origins lie in the traditional Chinese game Sho Tai Ti (Big Two), with influences from the German game Mau-Mau (Crazy Eights), the Japanese game Daifugō (Tycoon), the English Whist family of games (Hearts, Bridge, Spades, etc), Poker, and a few others. -description from the publisher
