You know that relaxing coffee break with friends? In Café da Tarde, that moment gets a spicy twist of mischief and strategy! The goal is straightforward: you are a customer in a charming café trying to rack up the highest (and most delicious) bill of the day. But don't think you can just pick your favorite treats and relax! While you're busy collecting amazing sweet cards to score points, your friends will be watching your every move.
The fun — or the betrayal, depending on who you ask — happens through action cards that let you mess up everyone else's banquet. Want to steal that special treat from your neighbor? Go for it! Want to force someone to split their bill and lose points? Absolutely! You might even need to use a card to protect your own plate from an unwanted 'helping hand.' The game requires smart hand management, forcing you to decide the perfect moment to strike or defend.
With a snappy gameplay loop lasting between 25 to 40 minutes, this game is perfect for those looking for something light yet engaging enough to keep everyone shouting 'take that!' every round. The game ends when the draw pile runs out or a set number of rounds is completed, and then it's just a matter of summing up the values of the treats you managed to keep on your plate. Whoever has the highest bill wins the title of best customer (and the game). It's a vibrant card game filled with interaction, ideal for players who love set collection and a healthy dose of social chaos among friends!
