Read the full game description

It's barbecue time, so call your friends and tell them to bring the ingredients to grill! In Grill Party, each player has a deck of twenty cards depicting the conditions for the meal – e.g., "More Steaks than Corn", "More Fish than Steaks", "No Fish", "More Wurst than anything" – and a set of wooden tokens: fish, corn, wurst and steak. On your turn, you can exchange one token from your hand with one token on the central barbecue or in the possession of another player, then play as many cards from your hand as you can that meet the condition depicted. The first to rid himself of cards wins.
