Read the full game description

Snack Time is a Roll and Write game for an unlimited number of players. Each round a player will roll 5 dice which will include appendages to add to your creatures as well as sewer pipes to guide them to the surface. Players are scored based on their ability to take a small bite out of people passing by and the quality of the people you snack on. If you aren't careful then the pedestrians will fight back and your creatures will be injured in their quest for food. At the beginning of the round the pedestrians will move down the street visiting different locations. Someone will roll the dice and all players will add traits to their creatures and add pipes to their sewer. Then everyone will check to see if one of their creatures can take a bite out of a pedestrian! This depends on being in the right location and having the right traits to overwhelm your prey! The Game ends when one player has completely fed all of their monsters or when a player gets caught by the authorities! Scores are based on the quality of food... I mean, people you ate, as well as how much damage your creatures sustained. Keep your monsters healthy and happy and don't alert the authorities or you will incur heavy penalties because snitches get stitches.
