Read the full game description
Chicken Caesar is a satirical negotiation game about ambitious poultry in ancient Rome. Each player guides a family of chickens through public offices, buying influence, making promises, and voting while officeholders collect renown and tempt fate. Rivals can cooperate long enough to elevate a useful candidate, then rewrite the political story when that bird becomes inconvenient. Death is frequent, reputations are flexible, and the family with the most prestige when the republic finishes devouring its leaders wins.
