HEY WAITER!

SERVICE OF A DIFFERENT KIND

Players are waiters and must serve dishes, the first waiter to have served all his dishes wins the game. Each player is given a set of busboy cards and a reference card for the partnership-action in case you play a team game with four players. Then each player receives 7 cards, the rest is stacked for a draw pile. For each player a stack of 12 dishes is drawn from the bag, each player chooses one stack and places one of his 7 cards underneath it. In your turn you always play two cards. In one card you use the left half for the action you want to take, in the other card the right half for the target of the action. The left half thus determines the action, the other half the color for which the action will be taken. For instance: You choose one card with “Green” on the left side, meaning all serve. Then you choose a card with “Red dish” on the right side. There for the red dish is served and all players, not you, can serve if they have a red dish on top of their stack. Dish covers do block dishes, busboys can help to serve or solve problems or you can resort dishes and form additional stacks to have a wider selection for serving dishes. A new stack must be placed on one of your cards; when a whole stack is moved or is completely served the card is freed and you can take it back into your hand. The number of cards in your hand plus the number of stacks must always be 7; so more stacks on the table reduce your selection of cards to play.

Sounds easy, but offers a surprising lot of tactic, especially in the balance between forming stacks and cards in hand available cards playing.
