About the game
Bites: New Recipes adds exciting game changing possibilities to the core game of Bites. One of the things that made the original game so exciting and replayable were the variable scoring cards. This expansion takes them to an entirely different level. You'll be able to play with over a dozen new rule cards that have noticeably larger effects than the cards in the base game. In addition to the rule cards, you'll have new characters and objects to play with. With this expansion, it can feel like you are playing a completely different game! -description from publisher
