Nacho Loco

Published 2007

Challengers will outwit, out score and out match opponents to be crowned champion of this spicy new strategy game. The object of the game is to acquire points by getting rid of all your unique triangular (tortilla chip!) cards while blocking opponents from doing the same. Each player is dealt six cards, and a card from the deck is flipped to create a playfield. Opponents place their three-sided cards in the playfield by matching colors. There are three segments on a card, which may include colors, actions, or an unmatchable Black X. Action cards including “Skip Next”, “Opponent Draws Three”, and “Go Again." If you cannot play, you draw a card; if you match 2 or 3 sides of your card the other players draw 1 or 2 cards. The field is Closed when no plays are possible. The player Closing then deals a card to each opponent and starts a new playfield. The first player to discard all cards is awarded one point per card remaining in their opponents' hands. First player to 20 points wins.
