Pizza Party (1987)

About this game

Pizza Party is a quick and simple variation of Memory for children which becomes much more adult and exciting when money is wagered on the outcome. Each player gets a color-coded pizza slice with six slots used to hold topping discs. There are six discs of four different toppings placed face down on the table along with two "switch" ones for each color. Players flip one over on their turn and add it to their slice if it matches the topping they already have. If a "switch" one is revealed, the player trades his or her slice with the player of the corresponding color or with any player if his or her own color is revealed. Ages 4 to 8

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.2/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 4 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
