About the game
What you do in a play session
Bag of Chips is that quick and fun game you play between longer sessions or when you want something light for the group to have a laugh. The idea is simple: you have objective cards and a bag full of colorful chips representing... well, snacks! Each round, the 'master of ceremonies' (which changes each round) draws some chips from the bag, and everyone secretly chooses which objectives to try and fulfill with these chips. The trick is deciding whether to aim for your more ambitious objectives (which give more points but are harder to achieve) or play it safe. If you push your 'luck' too hard (or rather, the chip bag), you might end up with unfulfilled objectives and lose precious points. It's a 'push your luck' game with hand management and simultaneous action selection, where each choice can bring you closer to victory or leave you in the dust. Whoever accumulates four reward tokens first wins the game. Perfect for those who enjoy a party game with a touch of strategy and a good 'oops, almost had it!' factor.
