description Chicken Foot Overview
Chicken Foot is a domino variant built around matching numbers at the open ends of a growing layout. When a double is played as a spinner, players must extend three tiles outward from it in a forked, three-branch pattern before ordinary chain-building can resume. The game is suited to casual and family play because it combines familiar domino rules with a visible special condition that changes the next legal moves.
