Gimbap (2023)

Giới thiệu

Can you play a game and make food at the same time? You must if you are playing Gimbap.

To set up, each player takes one of each of the components: gim (dried seaweed); a sheet each of bap (rice), cheese, and perilla leaves; and a (wooden) strip of ham, spinach, and danmuji (yellow pickled radish).

Each round, turn up point tokens equal to the number of players minus one. A player rolls 2-4 customer dice. Each die has multiple faces that show how the customer wants their ingredients in the gimbap: the cheese must (or must not) touch the gim, the ham must not touch the spinach and danmuji, the rice must touch the danmuji, etc. The more dice you roll, the harder the challenge.

Everyone races to make their gimbap at the same time, which must be finished by rolling the gim and using the velcro to hold your gimbap together. Grab the highest point token still available.

Once everyone has finished, players check their gimbap to see whether they met the customer's requests, starting with whoever has the highest token. If a player succeeds, they turn the token face down and keep it; otherwise, they pass it to whoever finished first after them. (If a player has two tokens, they keep the higher-valued token and pass the lower — or they pass the higher one and discard the other.)

After all the tokens have been claimed, whoever has the most points wins.
