Fish Cook

Fish Cook is a simple strategy board game about being a master chef. It's an original design from James Ernest, but it also has a fake back story about being invented in France in 1909.

In Fish Cook, players compete to make the best recipes (and earn the most money) through careful planning and a little good fortune. Each "day" is divided into two parts: In the morning, players visit the Fish Market and the Farmer's Market, buying ingredients as cheaply as they can. In the evening, players use their ingredients to cook recipes and earn money.

You can cook any recipe you can see, which sometimes means copying a dish that another player has already made. When you do this, you might actually steal that recipe into your own menu. That's worth some prestige, which comes in the form of bonus points at the end of the game. Oh, and if you don't cook your fish by the end of the day, you will have to throw it away!

Fish Cook is simple, clever, and lots of fun.
