Chicken

The game of chicken is a dare-based contest in which two participants engage in an escalating risky confrontation—historically driving cars toward each other or off a cliff edge—to see who will 'chicken out' and yield first. It has become a general term for any standoff testing nerve, and is used as a metaphor in game theory for situations where mutual stubbornness could lead to disaster for both sides. The appeal lies in the psychological tension and bragging rights of outlasting an opponent's resolve.
