Oishii is a delightful card-based tabletop game for lovers of Japanese cuisine and kawaii charm.
In the game, each player runs their own food stall, equipped with unique powers. Your job is to create tasty menu sets by pairing up the right food types, allowing you to serve big orders and earn more money. If the food sets you develop meet the guests' requirements, you will win them over. At the end of the game, the player who has earned the most money from the guests wins.
★ HIGHLIGHTS ★

★ HOW TO PLAY ★
Step 1: Choose Your Food Stall
Each player randomly selects a food stall to start with. Each stall has a unique power. If you play a card that matches your stall (e.g., playing Seafood Ramen while owning a ramen stall), you activate its power.
Step 2: Craft Delicious Menus
On your turn, you can either "explore new menus" by drawing random food cards or "cook the food" by playing cards to your deck. You can play a single card or a linked group of cards as indicated on each food card header. For example, the Seafood Ramen card indicates that this "ramen" card can link to a "beverage" card. If you have an Oolong Tea card (a "beverage"), you can play these two cards together to create a food set. You may link as many food cards as possible.
Step 3: Serve the Guests
If the food set you create meets the requirements of the guests, you win the guest card and let the guest take over the food set you created for them. Hurry, don’t let your opponents win the guests! Plan wisely to attract the guests to your stall.
Step 4: Compete for the Winner
Once the game ends, the player who earns the most money from the guests wins.
