Robots Ate Our Pizza (2021)

Overview

Robots have crashed your pizza party and challenged you to a contest! The winners get to eat your pizza! You and your friends must work together to solve a series of tasks. After each task the robots will eat some slices of pizza. Number of slices eaten depends on your group’s performance on the task. How much pizza will you have left after completing the four tasks?

This is a cooperative game - players must work together as a team to succeed. This is a “select-and-pass” game (AKA "drafting") - players pick a card, pass the rest of their hand left, and repeat.

The game includes 20 tasks of increasing complexity making the game suitable for both avid gamers and families. The advanced tasks provide challenge and replayability for avid gamers. Families playing with kids can enjoy the game even without the advanced tasks.

Players get points for collecting different combinations of robots. But because this is a cooperative game, you cannot only think about your own points. You must also think about how your card selection affects players downstream from you. Selecting a specific card might help you a little, but it might help a player one or two positions to your left even more. But then again, you aren’t entirely sure what players downstream from you are collecting, and they can't tell you. You have to make an educated guess!
