So helpful!

agreed

no

@bt_Gaming that makes no sense

Thank you that's incredibly high praise!

Hii.. i want to ask have you played this game???

😊 depending on how old your kids are, if they have a hard time learning the game, I'd recommend sorting out the deck to just teach them half the card types at first, then add in new types every time you play until they know them all.

Thank you for the comment!

hahaha maybe they aren't supposed to win I guess.

I love to hear that, thanks! Hope it's helpful to you and many others.

Yes, that's totally accurate. Learning either one of those games gives you a big head start on learning the other

Thanks Maria that's so sweet! I love this game and I hope you and your friends enjoyed it.

@@GamePointTabletop Thank you! It was so fun and this weekend we are going to play the full board game version which I had no idea was a thing!😊

@@Sweet.Maria. Yes the bigger version is super fun! I've played it a couple times and really enjoyed it. I've been meaning to get a copy and make a video. It's basically the same game, just with a wider variety of card types so every round is more unique.

@@GamePointTabletop That’s awesome! You should totally get a copy and do a review! I love board games! We have a place called Sweets and Geeks in my town where you can just play random games to see if you like them. Anyway, I will be looking forward to your next review! ☺️

Thanks for adding! Mind if I copy this into the description so it formally breaks the video into chapters? This video was posted before KZfaq had that feature

@@GamePointTabletop no, not at all! Go ahead!

Happy new year! Hope you enjoyed the game

Thanks! Happy to help

You too you're welcome!

Same with pudding

Interesting. I wonder if there are different editions of the rulebook that have changed this rule? My copy and the one I found online say you do split the points.

It looks like he just made a video on it recently!

Good question. Everyone is considered in the pudding points. So if you have 0 pudding, that would count as the least and you would lose points.

Thanks!

unfortunately no. The wasabi just gives a bonus to your next nigiri, so you have to take the risk to get the payoff!

At the end of the round, chopsticks are useless dead weight worth no points. So use them early or they go to waste! Someone will end the round with them and you want to hope that isn't you

You shuffle and deal out hands to everyone to start each round

Yes, shuffle the deck at the beginning, then you should have enough cards to play all 3 rounds without having to shuffle again.

😄 you're welcome

After each round, when you've played all the cards. You'll take score, then discard everything except your puddings.

@@GamePointTabletop I figured it out by now but once I did I realized how super easy it is and how funny it was that it was so hard to understand at first. Fun game :) thanks

I've actually only played that once, years ago. I do remember it being fun though! And I know a friend of mine has it, so I may have to break it out soon and give it a play.

Please make a video about this

This guy is spitting straight facts

It makes a ton more sense once you've done it once, but it is probably the most confusing part of this game so you're not alone. I'll try to give an example with numbers. See if this helps. The hands going around the table always need to have the same number of cards as each other so that they'll run out at the same time. So imagine you play chopsticks when all the hands have 6 cards each. Now all the hands have 5 cards and they pass around the table. You get a hand with 2 Sashimi in it, and you've already played one earlier. So you really want to play both of those sashimi to finish your set of 3. With chopsticks, you can do that! You'll hold out one of the sashimi face-down and reveal it when everyone's ready. Now everyone has a hand of 4 cards. But before you pass the rest of that hand to the next player, you pick up the chopsticks that you had played earlier and put them back in that hand, and take out the second sashimi in their place. So, in one turn that hand lost 2 cards (both sashimi) but it also gained the chopsticks that you picked back up. And now it has 4 cards in it just like the rest of the hands at the table, and you pass it along. Eventually, someone gets stuck with the chopsticks card and has to play it at the end of the round when they won't get a chance to pick it back up because the round is ending. That's sad because they have to play a card worth no points.
