About the Game

Welcome to the ultimate cooking contest: The Cook-off! Here the most talented and selfish chefs duel to find who is the best. Be careful, opponents will try everything to beat you... Sabotage is the way!

The Cook-off is a strategic party game for 4-6 Players. The objective is to be the best and more productive cooker in the contest.

All Players have the same hand of action cards.

The tournament has 10 rounds with a sequence of three actions each. Players put down 3 cards facing down on the Countertop, following the desired order for their actions.

All players define their round cards, everyone simultaneously show the first card. Players should now discuss and decide in which order actions take place, in other words, who Sabotages who if possible. Alliances and conspiracies are more than welcome, but it is good to remember: No one is required to follow anybody!

After resolving first actions, each player has now the option to change the order of the second with the third card, as long as they aren’t revealed. Everyone confirm the final order and resolve the action on the proposed order. After the three action are resolved, each player return the played cards to their hands and choose 3 cards again according to their plans for the next round. Game continues...

The winner will be the one who gets more Victory Points (VPs) with his recipes, and nothing friendly tricks, after ten rounds with three actions each.
