Hens

Prepare your coop for a poultry show in Hens! In this abstract and charming game, you take on the role of a chicken breeder aiming to create the most harmonious and high-scoring flock. Each round, you'll play a hen card from your hand, trying to fit it into your personal barnyard. The rules for placing cards are quite simple, but the real challenge lies in grouping together as many hens of the same breed as possible. Think carefully about where to place each bird, as space is limited and strategy is key to maximizing your points.

The game goes beyond simply gathering chickens. You can also earn bonus points with your rooster token, which plays a special role, and with objective cards that guide your ambitions. Keep an eye out for rare hens, as they can bring you valuable medals at the end of the game. With quick 15-20 minute playtime and gameplay for 1 to 4 players, Hens is one of those games that fits on any table and appeals to both those looking for something fast and strategic, and those who enjoy a lighter, thematic feel. It's one of those card puzzlers that makes you think without overwhelming you, perfect for relaxing or spicing up game night with a touch of the farm.
