Buffet Boss — a balanced diet on your table! Enjoy a harmonious combination of selected ingredients: dexterity games, family strategy, and fun puzzles.
Your task is to build and maintain fragile towers made of various dishes, fruits, and vegetables presented on the buffet table. The plate's capacity is very modest, and you need to fit so many delicious items in it… Moreover, the dishes are of such strange shapes that they just won't stay still! Plan your moves, use dexterity and concentration — the main thing is not to let the precious food fall. And if the unruly avocado does roll off the plate, the famous «three-second rule» will save you.
Ripe fruits, juicy meat, healthy vegetables, fresh seafood, and delicious desserts are ready to become someone's lunch. The more complex the shape of the food, the more points it will bring (if it remains on your plate by the end of the game). Stack wooden products on top of each other, creating a whimsical, very appetizing, and alarmingly tall tower.
In addition to testing your dexterity, Buffet Boss offers a logic and decision-making challenge. After all, you will have to collect treats on your plate while adhering to a character's special diet. Who will you get: a seafood lover, a vegetarian, a sweet tooth, or a desperate broccoli hater? Attention to individual taste preferences earns you impressive bonus points. Only true tabletop gourmets can take on this challenge!
Scientists believe that visual perception affects the taste of the dish we eat. And the appearance of these appetizing components — on the aesthetic pleasure of the game! Colorful design, charming characters, bright and pleasant-to-touch wooden figures. The game's author — like an experienced chef — paid great attention to detail. For example, the reminder cards are made in the form of a menu, and there is even a trash bin at the top of the box where you will have to throw away fallen products.
The path to the title of Buffet Boss consists of several simple steps:
GET READY FOR THE GAME
Deal 2 character cards, 1 plate, and 1 menu card to each player.
SET UP THE BUFFET
At the beginning of each round, lay the food cards face up in the center of the table.
TAKE AND PLACE THE FOOD
On your turn, take a card from the buffet table, and place the corresponding food figure on your plate.
FOLLOW THE «PLATE RULES»
- you can only use one hand
- food must not touch the table
- figures must lie on their edges and in one plane
- if a figure falls, you have 3 seconds to pick it up and return it to the plate
- if several figures fall, you can only pick up half of them
The game lasts for 7 rounds and ends when the food deck runs out. Count points for the total amount of food, character cards, and the highest plate. The player with the most points wins and is declared the Buffet Boss!
