Description

The Game of Gelato, also known as 'Il gioco del Gelato', is a card game about gaining ingredients to prepare a quality ice cream: fresh cream, milk, beet sugar, seasonal fruit… Recipe book in hand, the winner is whoever manages to please customers by guessing their favorite flavors.

The box is made up of 110 cards, which are then divided into Customer cards, Ingredient cards and Base Ingredient cards; there is no shortage of recipes and regulations. The deck of customer cards, marked with an ice cream symbol, are to be placed in the center of the table and are revealed during construction to form the "shop". In turn, each player decides whether to prepare an ice cream to serve the customer or to obtain the necessary ingredients. To prepare the ice cream, the player must discard the necessary ingredients from his hand by first checking the recipe in the cookbook. The “wild” cards can replace any ingredient. The more ice cream of customers' favorite flavors the player prepares, the more victory points he earns.

The player with the most points when the deck runs out, wins.
