Moo's Code might be the only game to include a wooden spoon! During the game, players take on the role of Carole the cow, who wants to make fun recipes, but she's missing eggs, carrots, hazelnuts, and chocolate. She picks up a recipe card, sees what's missing, then taps on the table with the wooden spoon to tell her friends the number of syllables in the needed ingredient. The other players listen carefully while watching the cards of ingredients and try to find one that corresponds to the information they hear. The first player to collect five recipe cards wins.
