Description
Experience the culinary excitement with Raid the Pantry, a captivating cooking-themed card game proudly made in New Zealand. Step into the kitchen and become a master chef as you gather ingredients, concoct mouthwatering dishes, and race to score points!
Ideal for 2-4 players or two teams of two, Raid the Pantry immerses you in a world of culinary delight. At the beginning of the game, you're dealt a hand of ingredient and dish cards. Your mission is clear: collect the necessary ingredients to complete the dishes in your hand. Each completed dish not only earns you valuable points but also unlocks its ingredients for use in future creations. As you savor the taste of victory, snatch a new dish card to keep the momentum going!
But beware, the game is spiced up with action cards that introduce twists and turns. Drawn at the start of each turn, these cards provide exciting opportunities to add, lose, trade, and retrieve ingredient cards. Keep an eye out for the eight "Instant Dishes" among the action cards, allowing you to lock in a common ingredient and instantly earn a point.
Unlock a world of flavors with the "cuisine bonus." Craft multiple dishes from one of the five primary cuisines featured on the dish cards—American, Continental, French, Italian, and Mexican—and reap additional rewards. Will you be the first player to reach the point threshold, determined by the number of players? Success is within your reach!
In the team version, the action card deck serves as the ultimate timer. Players unite, cook up a storm, and total their points when the deck is depleted. It's a race against time to claim victory!
Raid the Pantry has received prestigious accolades, including the New Game of the Year award in 2013 from the New Zealand Games Association. It was also recognized by Creative Child Magazine as a Game of the Year in the same year and proudly earned a "Recommended by American Mensa" commendation—an honor bestowed upon only the finest games.
Originally published by SchilMil Games in May 2012, Raid the Pantry's legacy continues under the ownership of Cheeky Parrot Games. In June 2015, the game received a second edition, featuring delightful graphical and gameplay enhancements.
Get ready to embark on an epic culinary adventure and unleash your inner chef with Raid the Pantry. It's time to dominate the kitchen and claim the title of the ultimate cooking champion!
