About the game
In Treehouse Diner, you help run a flying delivery service that provides the hungry animals of the area with delicious food. As a kitchen helper, you aid the cooks in delivering the orders as quickly as possible. To do so, you collect ingredients from the pantry in a matter of minutes and read the chefs' lips to see what ingredients they need next! As you race to prepare the most dishes by the end of the game, trying to snatch the needed ingredients quickly, another player might retaliate by flooding you with additional orders. Maybe time spent saving the stray bees will make a difference in the end... Treehouse Diner includes two modules that allow you to adapt the game's complexity should novice and experienced players be at the table at the same time.

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Treehouse Diner is 30–45 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Treehouse Diner for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.

Treehouse Diner has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
