Get ready for a strategic card duel in 'Chickadee', a two-player exclusive game where the goal is to be the first to shed all your cards. Inspired by the resilience of chickadees, who store resources to survive winter, you and your opponent will cleverly collect and discard cards to ensure your 'survival' in the game.

At the start, a standard 52-card deck is split: each player receives two entire suits. Some of these cards are arranged in a pyramid structure in front of each player, serving as a 'stock' from which new cards can be drafted throughout the game, utilizing the open drafting mechanic. Hand management is crucial here, as you'll need to plan your moves to optimize discarding while also keeping an eye on emerging opportunities and your opponent's weaknesses.

'Chickadee' features a simple meld structure, making it an excellent entry point for those new to shedding and ladder climbing games. It's a game that rewards adaptability, foresight, and the ability to exploit your opponent's openings. If you enjoy quick card duels full of clever decisions, 'Chickadee' promises to be a charming and challenging addition to your collection.
