About this game
100% Beef Showdown is a card-drafting game in which players try to assemble "poker" hands from different parts of beef and bone. In each of three rounds, players draft a hand of six cards, then create a "cow" of five cards, flipping the sixth card face down to serve as the head of the cow. If you win the round, then you score the points shown on the head of the cow, while other players get to keep their head cards as "stock" for use in the subsequent round.
Does it fit your group?
- Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
- 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 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
