Ultimate name explanation?

[wandrecanada]

Trying to figure out where the name derives from.

I can only assume Chicken refers to the game where you risk your reputation against another person(s) by both performing the same feat. Horse is tougher. I know the game of horse where each side makes bets on winning and then builds the horse. Winners only score when the other side loses.

These premises both seem in line with the risk reward aspect of UCH Party Play. Am I on the right tack? Or am I missing the obvious?

(Also yay team Canada! I love that the hockey machine is in the game. Just need a beaver character with toque option.)

You pretty much have it figured out.

Also, surprisingly, the Hockey Shooter was design by an american kickstarter backer.

Missed some info here! Horse is also from the game H.O.R.S.E., which is usually played with a basketball. One person will try a hard or tricky shot, then if they make it and the other person misses, they get the letter "H". They keep getting letters if they can't match the other player, and the first player to get "H.O.R.S.E." loses. In our game, you have to try to step it up and do something that's too hard for your friend, and you get points.
