Description
The Yawning Portal is a fantasy board game where you play as part of the tavern's staff, tasked with feeding fascinating adventurers who come with unique tastes in food. Your goal is to match food tokens with the orders pictured on their hero cards, earning colored gems and points for every match. The twist is that the colored gems that appear most frequently on the board receive the highest value, so you need to strategize to tip the scoring scale in your favor. As you compete against other players, you can use potions to make patrons love your food, and collect more points by being the first to achieve an objective challenge or earning an endgame bonus. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime that flies by, The Yawning Portal is a fun and engaging game for 1 to 4 players, designed by Kristian Karlberg and Kenny Zetterberg and published in 2023.
