HOW TO PLAY Tortilla Takedown and Playthrough with Designer Alex Mackey

Description provided by The Game Bard on YouTube:

https://www.lethalchickengames.com/ @lethalchickengames1776 Alex Mackey walked in with a box. And inside that box was a wrestling ring. And a churro meter. And a taquito twin whose chair actually opens so you can smack someone with it. I did not expect to be this entertained. Tortilla Takedown is a hand-management card game where 3–4 luchadores are trying to get each other's churro hearts all the way down to zero. You're playing combos, blocking with No Way Jose cards, redirecting attacks with Flying Fajitas, and healing with churros. And if you pull off the Mega Takedown Combo — seven damage in one hit — it's basically over. The gameplay is quick, the cycling is satisfying, and the whole thing wraps up in about 20 minutes. This video is a paid collaboration with Lethal Chicken Games. 🏆 Game Highlights: Taquito Twin box with a working smack-able chair — unboxing gold Churro Meter tracks your health (15 hearts to start) Mega Takedown Combo deals 7 damage if you hold all the right cards Block, redirect, and chain attacks — deep strategy in a tiny box Tile bag mechanic adds randomness to the Mega Combo setup Top Rope cards hit hard — 4 damage with just two cards Three Count pin mechanic ends the game with a dramatic finish 🎵 I composed the music in this video.
