Emily is in town from Alaska. After picking her up from the airport and showing her the new digs, we met up with some other friends at
Squatch for food and games. After eating we played...
Menu Mash-Up 3-7 players
I've
stated in this blog that
Keyflower is the one game I owned before starting this that I
had never played. I lied. I've also never played this. But I wanted to
play Keyflower and don't really care for the idea of this game. It seems
like a mix of Apples to Apples and Foodie Fight. I can enjoy Apples to
Apples, but this just sounds stupid.
One person draws a card to
specify what they want to eat. All the other players compile the cards
they have to make what sounds like the tastiest version of that.
Everyone also has free access to cards with words like, "on" or
"with". They turn in their dish to the eater in a fold up menu and the
eater picks the tastiest or the one that fits the theme the best. Ugh. So stupid.
Stupid fun that is. Okay, maybe not
stupid fun, but still fun. We played enough to give everyone a chance to pick a meal. Liz won. She's the only person who truly understands how picky of an eater I really am. This gave her a large advantage.
The use of multiple cards together in one cohesive unit allows for way more creativity in an answer. You can really personalize what you give them. You still have those cards that you can never seem to pair up, but if you can get creative enough you can find a place. I've seen crazier things work on Chopped.
Tally: 125/174 Bonus: 30/50
