The Jam  didn´t even start yet, but I already announce  'Fast Food Wars'!
Pick your (random) favourite snacks/fast-foods and battle all your friends (like in a card game, but this time, in a 'business' card game)!
Rules will be available in the next few days!

Pick your drive-in orders and FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!!!!! Try to match extras to become stronger (Salt, Ketchup, Sugar, Mustard, Peppermint,  Picles, Cinnamon,  Buttercream, Chocolate Cover, Chantilli, Ganache, Cream Cheese, Chili Pepper, Guacamole, and others) or make your enemies weaker!
The winner is the tastiest food of all!!!

Should I put all the rules in the business cards?
Or can I put only the important ones to start playing and specific longer ones in a faq or a paper sheet?
I mean, I already set many rules to make the game pretty interesting (and longer)... and I turned it into a really bigger and faster game (maybe it can became a cool board game later), thinking in card games like Blackjack and mixing it with board games like Monopoly and Risk, but in a fast food theme.

Nice! The game already have 'some pages' of rules, as soon as I finish them (and I test with some friends), after the jam starts, I´ll post the rules.
Then, I´ll work in the content of each business card (already planned some restaurants, foods, drinks and extras to use).

Hey there! I think this is @The_Sinistro, right? If not, when Naomi, Nick, and I discussed putting the jam together we unanimously agreed that we are def not any sort of authority on what is/isn't a game or is/isn't appropriate for a business card, etc. We're excited to see what people come up with, so do what you think is right for your game  (no gatekeeping here.)

I like the idea of using different cards for different fast food places! Having multiple cards for different contexts is a great idea.

Yeah, I though like using restaurants based on puns of McDonald´s, Burguer King, StarBucks, Japanese Bar, some Beach Kiosk, a Food Truck, Mexican Restaurant and others.
But you can sell any food or drink (don´t stick to the funny names pun, you can sell Beer or Tequila in my fake McDonad´s).
Also the game have a real business strategy (pay atention to your competitors and decide when to release a new product in your restaurant).
For extended gameplay, if agreed, everyone playing can have one (or more) franchises, trying to take care of 2 restaurants or more.

There are simple rules, but complex gameplay.
In fact you will have to stick to real life rules in the food experience.
Adding Ketchup and Mustard to your Hamburguer will make it tastier, but doing that to a Cake will decrease it´s value (you can take out advsersaries attacks on your foods bay using a 'extra' that gives it better taste, or vice versa, you can make a enhanced food became worse). If you can´t decide if a 'extra' is good or not (like putting shoyu or creamcheese in your hamburguer), all players will vote if a 'extra' is good or bad for a food.

Drinks don´t require any 'extra', but they have a value of 1. Salty Foods or Sweet Foods have a value of 2 and can be decreased (by adversaries) or increased (by you) by adding 'extras'.
Knowing that you have to put all of your cards until everyone played every single card in hands.
You must place a restaurant (picked at random) and a food/drink (also picked at random) that will be the food or drink you sell when you start your restaurant.
After that players will decide who start by any way everyone agrees, then everyone picks a food/drink card and 3 extra cards for the firts 3 turns (you must place one card in yout turn in one restaurant).
Players can´t be attacked more than once per turn (to avoid everyone attacking the same player). In the next turn, anyone can be attacked again.
It´s up to the players to choose when to release new food/drinks in its own restaurant, but everyone must use all cards until the game is over.
I didn´t decide yet when a game ties/ends in a draw, but I´ll test with some friends before deciding.

Prototype version (I´ll create the restaurants, foods, drinks and extras during the gamejam):

For now foods are Sweet Food and Saulty Food .
Use Salty Extra in Salty Food to enhance it in one point, use Sweet Extra in Salty Food to decrease it in one point (and vice versa).
You can use multiple extras. A Salty Extra destroys an Sweet Extra already placed and both are taken out of the game  (and vice versa) .

Drinks can´t have any extra.
They have the value of one (Drinks are safe but have low value).

A4 version test (17 cards can be placed, but I´ll later place only 16 restaurants in a page)

In the case of a draw Star West suggested a cool way with a Sudden Death =)
Now I´ll have to try with some friends to see which version they like more.

The rules are finally here!

Have fun everyone and have a nice jam!
