Blindes Huhn

Each player tries to collect chicken cards with the most points. As if it were not difficult enough to collect the bustling chickens, Blind Hens are sneaking among them causing trouble. But even a Blind Hen „sometimes finds a grain of corn“ (German saying).

The auctioneer offers three cards with chicken in different colors and with different values. But he only shows one or two of the cards to the other players - the other card(s) remain facedown! This way the auctioneer can try to play tricks on the other players. Is there a Blind Hen in the package coming up with minus points? Players with Golden Corns may relax, because a Blind Hen counts plus points when paired with a Corn.

In an auction round every player may give only one single bid. Thus, you have to think twice, whether you want to buy the package, although you are not sure about one or two cards. Consider that you have to pay your bid with the cards from your display. If you are on the way to get points for the majority in a specific color you do not want to use those ones to pay for new cards of uncertain value. In the end the you total of your three most valuable colors and add points for majorities as well as plus points for Golden Corns. Finally your Blind Hens score plus points when having a corn - and each Blind Hen that is bar of Corn scores minus points.
