¡TACO FIGHT! (2019)

About this game

If you thought Taco Tuesday was just about throwing back piles of tasty food with your friends, think again. The tacos are so enraged by your murderous weekly get-togethers that they’ve come to life to attack you with everything they’ve got. It’s an all-out war as you and your friends work together to raise up your own taco army to fight, smash, and eat wave after wave of increasingly spicy tacos. If you survive, you win. If even one of you goes into a food coma, you lose. ¡Taco Fight! is a fully cooperative real-time frenzy as you and your friends defend against six waves of increasingly spicy tacos by smashing them, eating them, or fighting them with an army of your own tacos. You’re all on one team and there are no turns. Everyone works together at the same time to survive the waves of attacking tacos. If one of you loses, you all lose.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
