Alrightgames: Little Master Chef

Little Master Chef

2019 / Collecting card game / 2-5 players / India

The insultingly cheap price, slightly out-of-place financial element and my own racism suggested that this was likely a well-conceived retheming of an existing format before I read that it's basically Monopoly Deal for people who aren't quite boring enough to want that in the house.

Seems like a reasonable game, though in order to understand how to play it, you need to be too old for the patronising packaging. This makes its target audience parents or other well-meaning relatives buying it "for the children," like you've claimed for about half the things on the shelf.
