In Picky Eaters, make a dinner that 5 picky guests will eat! At the start of each round, a new guest is revealed. Players take turns gathering groceries from the market and preparing recipes to satisfy the growing list of picky dinner guests. Each guest has specific food preferences. Based on this information, players will try to appease their guests as strategically as possible. There are 5 rounds and each round consists of 5 steps: Reveal 1 new guest, deal 5 food cards to each player, fill the open market (2 cards x the number of players), take actions until all players have passed, then pass the first player marker to the next player clockwise. During the action phase, players have 5 actions to choose from: Get 1 food card from the open market, prepare a recipe (which requires the player to have the recipe card and its corresponding ingredients in hand), play an item card, discard 2 cards in hand to draw 1 card from the face-down food deck, or pass. At the end of the 5th round, whoever makes the most satisfying feast wins! Points are given for each recipe prepared and then modified based on the guests' preferences. The player with the most points wins. In the case of a tie, whoever started the game as a later player wins. -description from publisher
