Lord of the Fries

Fill zombie-restaurant orders with the right meat, bun and fries before anyone else does.

Lord of the Fries (1998) is a loud, silly card game set in a zombie fast-food joint, and a thematic sequel to Give Me The Brain! at the very same restaurant with the same cast. This time you pick orders from the Friedey's menu, sometimes by choice and sometimes at random, and try to fill them with cards from your hand. A Cowabunga is just Cow Meat and a Bun. A Chickabunga Conga adds Fries and a Drink to Bird Meat and a Bun. At the hard end sit the Lord of the Fries, the Meat Munch and the infamous Patriarch, with Fish Meat, Cheese, Bun, Fries, Drink and a much-maligned Strawberry Pie. It is set collection with a gross sense of humor, for three to eight.

Who it's for

You like gross, goofy card games with a tabletop of three to eight and a taste for the zombie-restaurant joke.

Not for you if…

You want a clever card game with deep planning. The humor is the main course here.

Vibe's take

Fast, sloppy and joke-heavy. The orders sound like menu items from a nightmare, and half the fun is reading them out loud.
