Oversized Sandwich 2024

Everybody has their favorite sandwich, except for you. Merely thinking of going to the grocery store to buy the freshest ingredients induces an existential crisis. Luckily, there’s a new, local sandwich shop that everyone has been raving about. It has a daily special, and all you have to do is to add a few toppings to make the sandwich more you, even if you’re not necessarily sure what that means.

In Oversized Sandwich, 2-4 players will play as competing indecisions within a singular indecisive person at a local sandwich shop. In this ladder-climbing-like game, players will play cards from their hands in a way that tries to match the listed order of ingredients for the sandwich of the day. The ingredients are putting in work as well, trying to tempt you to add them to your order with special powers that will activate either when played or once somebody completes an order. Once a sandwich has been created with eight or more ingredients, it’s time to check out…

But things still might not be right, so you’ll need to try again until at least one player has been able to designate enough conviction on their favorite ingredients. Once one player places at least five conviction markers, the game ends, and all players make sandwiches to see which version of the person they’re playing “wins.”
