Abandon All Artichokes review

Abandon All Artichokes is a fun, quick-playing card game that's easy to learn and enjoyable for players of all ages. The goal is simple: get rid of all your artichoke cards by harvesting vegetables with special powers that let you swap, discard, or compost cards. It's a combination of luck and strategy, and I found myself getting caught up in the excitement of trying to build the best hand possible. The game is quick to set up and play, and the art style is very cute and endearing. I especially love the sturdy tin packaging, which makes it easy to transport and store.

I played this game with my family, and we all had a great time. Even my parents, who don't usually play board games, were able to pick it up quickly. The rules are simple enough for younger players to understand, but there's enough depth to keep adults entertained as well. The game is also very replayable, as the different vegetable cards offer a variety of strategies.

One of the things I appreciated about this game is that it's not too complicated. You don't need to spend hours learning the rules, and it's easy to pick up and play even if you've never played a deck-building game before. However, I did find that the instructions could be a bit confusing at first. I recommend watching a tutorial video online if you're having trouble understanding the rules.

Overall, I highly recommend Abandon All Artichokes. It's a fun, fast-paced game that's perfect for families, game nights, or just a casual game with friends.
