Recipe for Play
Serves 2 to 6 players or teams.
Object of the Game
To fill a game board with tokens collected for correctly answering questions in each of six categories: Foodiesphere, Food Stars, Company's Coming, Lab and Field, Dining Out, and What's Cooking? To win, a player (or team) must be the first to fill in all the spaces on the game board.
Ingredients
6 game boards, 168 trivia cards, 1 color die, 108 scoring tokens.
Setting the Table
Each player or team gets one game board. Each player or team rolls the die; the first player or team to roll green goes first.
Playing with Food
(Whether playing as individual players or in teams, the same rules apply.)
On your first turn, roll the die. The colors on the die correspond to the categories on the trivia cards.
The other player or team draws the first card from the box and reads the question from the corresponding category. Answers are on the opposite side of each card.
If you answer your first question correctly, place a scoring token on the corresponding category on your game board and roll the die for another turn.
If you answer incorrectly, play passes to the player on your left. When done with the question, place the card in the back of the box, behind the other cards.
Table Manners
Players will agree on how long a person has to answer a question and how specific the answer must be.
Winning the Food Fight
To win, a player (or team) must be the first to fill the game board with three tokens in each category.
Fine Points
If you roll a color for a category that has been closed out (three questions answered correctly,) you must still answer that question before rolling again.
Fast Food
For a faster version of the game, players or teams need only to collect one (or two) scoring tokens per category to win.
