PLAYED FOR YOU

 

Hensslers Küchenrallye

Knowlede on Cook and Kitchen

 

Famous cook Steffen Henssler is in his kitchen in the middle of the board. As a player you receive a recipe card and need to collect all the ingredients listed on it and take them to Steffen Henssler. This is also the spot where all four markers start the game, if there are more than four players you play in teams.

The active player rolls the die: For a result of 1 to five you always move forward, always in clockwise direction, and can choose the direction at forks. When the turn ends on a taken spot you move forward to the next free spot. If you rolled Henssler, you can go to any spot, but at most to the next Henssler spot. On the spot you reached - usually an ingredient spot - you answer a question, either by choosing an answers from three suggestions or by completing a statement. Event spots give you or cost you ingredients. On Henssler spots you can swap ingredients. If you have collected all five ingredients and have taken them with the exact dice result to the Henssler spot in the middle, you win the game. The variant “Second Chance” allows a second try for the right answer, for discarding an ingredient.

How do you make a good meal? You take good ingredients, if possible regional and well-known, season them well and cook them to perfection. This is exactly how Steffen Henssler created this game - well-mixed standard mechanisms, seasoned with fun detail questions, attractively served and here we are with a good game. Not necessarily haute cuisine, but solid home cooking, that you can serve again and again.
