Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- on-table market and one-time power tokens — market interactions and one-time power actions modify scoring
- player hides own scoring values and simultaneously manipulates food on plates — round-based where players decide values for foods and manipulate tokens across plates
- targeting and deduction about opponents' eating choices — players deduce which foods are high/low scoring based on others' eating

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- contract fulfillment — A simple contract fulfillment game and that's yeah that's not a style of game that typically excites me I get resource I find resources efficiently I spend them on the contracts and that's kind of all it is.
