About the Game

Lets face it, everyone wants to be a rock star. Now you can live out your rock and roll dreams with Chops, a 3 Headed Giant Game.

While your friends wasted time on paltry endeavors such as getting good grades, preparing for college, holding down jobs, and listening to the man, you answered a higher call: the call of ROCK! After spending every waking hour of your formative years learning to play, it's time to cut the apron strings and strike out. Question is: do you have the Chops to become a superstar? Hire musicians, build bands, and play gigs for cashola and, even more importantly, BUZZ. But be careful, Rock can be dangerous.

Players use game cash to buy musician cards. Bands are built using musician cards. Each band has a collective Chops Rank which allows them to play gigs with differing requirements for cash and, more importantly, BUZZ. Bands may be upgraded with special instruments, with specific musician combinations and other factors.

Players foil other bands by playing Rivalry cards that can have hilarious effects such as musician demonic possession, alien abduction, botched pyrotechnics, broken instruments and many more.

Whoever ends the game with the most BUZZ wins.
