"Introduce kids to game mechanisms."

Purchased on Mighty Ape

Quite a lot of game bundled into a small box here. The theme is cute although perhaps eyebrow raising for parents who want to pretend, ‘all vegetables are delicious, see … mmm’. It is fast pace as having 2 cards to choice from normal doesn't induce analysis paralysis. There is bluffing (more good parenting, teach your children to lie); card drafting or ‘pick and pass’; and social deduction. Not as hard punching as Coup, fewer options of social deduction than Love Letter and much lighter bluffing game than Liars Dice or Sheriff of Nottingham. Rule book and player sheets could have been better, lends itself to making house rules.

Description

Bad Beets

Bad Beets is a fast-paced bluffing card game in which players must eat their vegetables — well, get rid of their vegetables through any means that they can.

Each player starts the game with eight beet cards that they must finish before they can leave the dinner table. On a turn, a player takes one of the two cards in hand, places it facedown on the table, then takes an action — from feeding the dog, sharing with another player, tattling on someone, or actually eating a beet — and the other players decide whether to allow the action or call the player on it. If the player is called out, they take the action only if they have the proper card in hand and the tattletale gets punished with an extra beet.
