Serve Up Unicorn Stew Next Month

Next month will see the release of the family game Unicorn Stew from Redshift Games. In the game, designed by Brian Knudson, players are chefs trying to please the palate of a mercurially manic minded monarch. Unicorn Stew is for three to six players, ages 8+, plays in around 20 to 30 minutes, and will carry an MSRP of $14.99 when it arrives in October.

About the game:

The King is Hungry!

The problem is, he’s not sure what he wants. In fact, he’s never sure what he wants. The best he can ever do is let the local chefs know that today he’s feeling kind of “gourmet… and… Ogre…ish…” or “something quick… and… Dragony…”

Whether you’re serving up a Pegasus Pot Pie, Fairy Kabobs, or a bowl of steaming Mermaid Chowder, match closest to what the King wants (or at least sabotage the other chefs) and be named the Realm’s Top Chef!

Each round a King’s Menu card is revealed, detailing what he is in the mood for. Each player selects an order card from their hand hoping it matches closer than the other players.

All Order cards are revealed simultaneously, and the winner claims the Menu card. Doubles always cancel, and Unicorn stew will usually win but watch out for sabotage cards from other chefs. Clan three Menu cards of the same ingredient or 5 of the same fining option to win!
