Throwback to 1989 and dig in to your all-time favorite party food! There's fairy bread, lamingtons, green snakes, and more.

Working together in Pass the Party Food, players need to collect their favorite treats and share them with their friends at the right time — but watch out because Ziggy, the mischievous puppy, is trying to grab food off the table! If you can outscore him as a team, you will all win the game together.
