No one knows when the giant fruits started growing, but everyone agrees they make a legendary punch. Become the head of one of four factions - orange, lemon, grape, or strawberry - and lead a band of rollicking revelers to victory. Compete with the other factions to bring the most desired ingredients to three massive punch bowls before they're served. Fish out your opponents' fruits, add droves of your own, and introduce special ingredients to tip the balance. When each punch is served, the winner adds some to their punch cup, along with coveted ice cubes for varying bonuses. Punch Bowl includes elements of area control, as well as a unique deck-curation mechanism in which players manage an ever-diminishing deck. Outmaneuver your opponents to win eternal glory and an overflowing cup of punch! Everyone starts the game with the same deck of 12 cards. Each round, draw three cards. Choose one to remove from your deck, one to keep for later, and one to play. At the end of each round, roll the serving die to add a ladle to a punch. The player with the highest value of fruit in their quadrant wins the punch and gets to add fruit to their cup. The game ends when a player runs out of fruit or you can't draw three cards at the start of the round. The player with the most points wins. -description from the publisher
