Sushi Go Party Card Guide

The Sushi Go Party Card Guide

Hey there! Are you ready to dive into the delicious world of Sushi Go Party? I’ve got you covered with this handy card guide. Let’s get started!��

The Basics

When you play Sushi Go Party, you’ll have a hand of colorful cards, each representing a different type of sushi. Your goal is to strategically choose and collect cards to score the most points. But watch out, my friend, because there’s a twist – some cards have special abilities that can change the game!

Types of Sushi Cards

Now, let’s talk about the different types of sushi cards you’ll encounter:

Nigiri Cards

First up, we have Nigiri Cards. These cards show a piece of sushi on a little wooden board. Each Nigiri Card is worth points, and the points can vary depending on the topping. For example, a Salmon Nigiri is worth 2 points, while an Egg Nigiri is worth only 1 point.

Roll Cards

Next, we have Roll Cards. These cards show a tasty sushi roll cut into bite-sized pieces. Each Roll Card has a different combination of sushi types and can score you big points! Keep an eye out for the special ability cards, though. They can double or even triple your score for a specific Roll Card!

Sashimi Cards

The Sashimi Cards are next on our menu. These cards represent a delicious plate of raw fish. Collecting Sashimi Cards can be a bit tricky, but it’s worth it because if you have 3 Sashimi Cards at the end of the round, you’ll score a whopping 10 points!

Dumpling Cards

Don’t forget about the Dumpling Cards! These adorable cards show a steaming basket of dumplings. The more Dumpling Cards you have, the more points you’ll score. But be careful – the scoring changes as you collect more Dumpling Cards, so strike a balance!

Game Strategies

Now that you know the different types of cards, it’s time to talk strategy. Here are a few tips to help you dominate the sushi game:

Diversify Your Cards

It’s tempting to focus on collecting one type of card, but diversifying your collection is key. Mixing and matching different types of cards will help you score more points and keep your opponents on their toes.

Keep an Eye on the Special Abilities

Remember those special abilities I mentioned earlier? Keep a lookout for them as you choose your cards. They can give you an extra edge and help you secure more points. A well-timed special ability could be the key to victory!

Adapt to the Game

Sushi Go Party is all about adapting to the game as it unfolds. Pay attention to what cards are being played and adjust your strategy accordingly. Being flexible will give you an advantage and keep you ahead of the sushi game.

Conclusion

So there you have it – a comprehensive guide to the world of Sushi Go Party cards. Remember, it’s all about collecting the right combination of cards to score the most points. Keep these tips in mind, experiment with different strategies, and most importantly, have fun! Let the sushi feasting begin! ����

Nigiri is a crucial part of any amazing sushi meal. You get 1 point for each egg nigiri. For each salmon nigiri, you get 2 points. And if you have a squid nigiri, that’s 3 points right there.

But here’s a twist: if you have an egg nigiri on a wasabi card, you get a whopping 3 points!

Now, let’s talk about rolls. Maki rolls, to be precise.

Hey there! Are you ready for some deliciousness? Let’s dive into the world of maki rolls!

End of the round: Now, let’s check those maki roll icons on your played cards. Whoever has the most gets a whopping 6 points. And guess what? The person with the second most still gets a sweet 3 points!

If there’s a tie for most or second most, everyone gets the full points. But hey, you need at least one maki roll card to get any points for maki rolls.

For example: Imagine Chris and Meredith have 5 maki roll icons, Kerry has 3, and Andrew only has 1. Chris and Meredith, being the maki roll masters, each score 6 points, while Kerry gets 3 points for their amazing effort.

In a big game with 6-8 players: The player with the second most maki rolls snags 4 points, and the player with the third most still gets a nice 2 points. And of course, tied players still get the full points like before.

Temaki

Hey there! Let me tell you about something really cool – temaki rolls! They’re these amazing rolls that are just the perfect size to hold in your hand.

So, after a round of playing, it’s time to see how many temaki roll cards each of us have. Here’s what happens next:

If you have the most temaki roll cards, you get a whopping 4 points! That’s exciting, isn’t it?

But here’s the twist – if you have the fewest temaki roll cards (yes, even if you have none at all), you lose 4 points. Ouch!

Oh, and in a game with just 2 players, the player with the fewest temaki roll cards doesn’t lose any points. Phew, that’s a relief!

Let me give you an example to help you understand better. Imagine we’re playing, and I have 3 temaki cards, while my friends Meredith has 2, and Kerry and Andrew have 0. In this case, I would score 4 points because I have the most temaki cards, but poor Kerry and Andrew would both lose 4 points.

Now, let’s talk about Uramaki:

Uramaki rolls are a type of sushi roll that is made inside-out. Isn’t that interesting? It adds a fun twist to the game. Speaking of which, let’s have a little competition! Race your friends to see who can eat ten uramaki rolls first!

Here’s how the game works: During each round, the first player to collect at least 10 icons on their played uramaki cards will score 8 points. Pretty cool, right? If that’s you, move your pawn on the score track and discard your uramaki cards. The next player to reach 10 uramaki icons will score 5 points, and the third player will score 2 points. Remember, these points are scored right away, and the cards are discarded.

If by chance, multiple players reach 10 or more icons on the same turn, we have a tiebreaker. The player with the highest total number of uramaki icons on their cards wins. But what happens if there’s still a tie? Well, in that case, both players will receive the full points for the place they are contesting. It’s only fair, right? And if this happens, the next place in the scoring is skipped.

After the round ends: Whoever has the most uramaki icons in front of them will earn points for the next place that has not been taken (8 points if no one has earned uramaki in the round, 5 points if only the first place has earned uramaki, 2 points if both first and second places have earned uramaki, and 0 points if all three places have earned uramaki). If multiple players are tied for the most uramaki icons, they each get the full points. It’s possible for one player to earn points for multiple places in a single round.

Picture this: Chris and Meredith are playing a game of uramaki cards, and it’s getting intense. They both have 12 uramaki icons, which means they’ve crossed the threshold of 10 icons. As per the rules, this puts them in the lead, and they both score a whopping 8 points each. It’s a tie! This also means that there won’t be a second-place winner, so the next player to reach 10 icons will only receive 2 points. The round comes to an end, and unfortunately, no one else has reached 10 icons. But fear not, the game is not over yet!

Among the remaining players with uramaki cards, there’s Kerry, who stands tall with the most icons. As a result, she adds 2 points to her score. It’s a hard-fought victory, but it’s well-deserved.

Quick tip: Keep track of the discarded uramaki cards by placing them face-up beside the score board. This will serve as a helpful reminder of how many places have been awarded in the round. Remember to shuffle these discarded cards back into the deck for the next round. Let the games continue!

Appetizers

Dumpling

Hey there! Let’s talk about dumplings – they’re absolutely delicious! The more you eat, the more you crave them! You can earn points based on how many dumplings you have. Check out the table below to see how many points you score:

Dumplings Points
1 1
2 3
3 6
4 10
5+ 15

Now, let’s talk about edamame!

(Only use in 3-8 player games). These beans are great for sharing at the table!

You earn 1 point for each opponent who has edamame, for every edamame card you play. Edamame cards are worth 0 points if only one player plays any edamame in the round. Even if more than 4 opponents play edamame, each edamame card can only be worth a maximum of 4 points.

For example: Let’s say at the end of the round, I have 3 edamame, Kerry has 2 edamame, and Andrew has 1. Each of my edamame is worth 2 points (1 per opponent with any edamame), so in total, I score 6 points.

Kerry scores 4 points and Andrew scores 2 points.

Eel

I bet you won’t like eel at first, but trust me, it’s an acquired taste! Let me break it down for you: if you only have 1 eel, you’ll lose 3 points. But if you have 2 or more, you’ll actually score 7 points! It’s a weird scoring system, I know. Anyway, let’s move on to something better – onigiri!

Hey there! Ever tried rice balls? They come in different shapes – and it’s so fun to collect them all! There are four shapes of onigiri: circle, triangle, square, and rectangle. The more unique shapes you have, the more points you score. Here’s how it works:

Unique shapes Points
1 1
2 4
3 9
4 16

For example, let’s take Chris. Chris has one circle onigiri, one triangle onigiri, and two square onigiri. So, for the set of three unique onigiri, Chris scores 9 points. And for the second set of just one unique onigiri (the second square), Chris scores 1 point. So in total, Chris gets 10 points.

Miso Soup

Have you ever been envious of that one person who always orders a piping hot cup of miso soup?

Let me tell you about the wonders of miso soup. When you play a miso soup card and you’re the only one who plays it in a turn, you get to keep it in your play area until the round ends. By then, it will reward you with 3 points. However, if more than one miso soup card is played in the same turn, including one by yourself, all those miso soup cards are immediately thrown away and won’t score any points at the end of the round.

Just remember to place these discarded miso soups face-up next to the game board, so they can be shuffled back into the deck for the next round. If a player uses a chopstick, spoon, menu, or special order to play a miso soup, it’s considered played in that same turn. That means you can score multiple miso soups in a single round!

Sashimi

Sashimi is a true delicacy that requires patience to truly savor. If you have one or two pieces of sashimi, your score is zero. However, if you have three pieces of sashimi, your score will be ten. Keep in mind that you can score multiple sets of sashimi in a single round.

Now, let’s talk about tempura.

I can’t resist the irresistible crunch of tempura. It’s like a magic spell – one bite and you’re under its delicious spell. But here’s the twist: the more tempura you have, the higher your score.

If you start with just one piece of tempura, your score will be a big fat zero. But as soon as you devour a second piece, your score shoots up to 5. Isn’t that amazing?

And the best part is, you’re not limited to just one set of tempura. You can have as many as you want in a single round. So go ahead, indulge in this crispy treat and watch your score soar.

Now, let’s talk about tofu. It’s a whole different ballgame. Tofu doesn’t add anything to your score. It’s like a neutral player in this delicious game. So if you’re looking to rack up some points, stick to the golden goodness of tempura.

So there you have it. Tempura is the key to victory in this culinary battle. The more you eat, the higher you climb on the scoreboard. So grab those chopsticks and get ready to savor the crispy delight of tempura perfection.

Hey there! Let’s talk about tofu, shall we? It’s a bit of a love-hate relationship. You see, tofu can be really good for you, but there’s a catch – eat too much of it, and you might end up getting sick of the stuff.

Now, here’s the deal: if you have just 1 tofu, you score 2 points. Not bad, right? But if you decide to go for 2 tofus, things get even better – you score a whopping 6 points! That’s pretty awesome, if you ask me.

However, here’s where things take a turn. If you happen to have 3 or more tofus, well, sorry to burst your bubble, but they’re all worth a disappointing 0 points. Yep, you read that right. Zero.

Now, let’s talk specials.

First up, we have chopsticks.

When you want to grab two dishes at the same time, just use chopsticks! It’s like a superpower that lets you take 2 cards on a future turn. Isn’t that cool?

Here’s how it works: when you play the chopsticks card, nothing happens right away. But on a future turn, you can use it to take an extra action. All you have to do is say “chopsticks!” when everyone else is revealing their cards.

Once you activate your chopsticks, choose a second card from your hand and play it immediately. After that, put the chopsticks card back into your hand, so you can use it again later. This means that other players might use their chopsticks too, because they see how useful it is.

Remember, at the end of the round, any unused chopsticks card is worth zero points. So make sure to use it wisely!

Menu

If you’re playing a game with 2-6 players, here’s a fun rule to spice things up. If you’re not satisfied with the dishes available, simply order something different from the menu!

When you play a menu card, you get to draw 4 cards from the deck that hasn’t been used yet. Take a look at them and choose 1 card to play right away. You can’t play another menu card though. Return the remaining 3 cards back to the deck and give it a good shuffle. Place the menu card next to the board for everyone to see. It will be shuffled back into the deck before the next round.

Soy Sauce

I love how soy sauce enhances the taste of every dish. It’s like a magical touch that makes the flavors come alive.

After we finish playing a round with soy sauce, we all compare our cards and see who has the most variety in colors. If I have the most (or am tied for the most) different colored backgrounds and I’ve played a soy sauce card, I get 4 points. And guess what? I can even score multiple soy sauce cards in one round!

When we’re calculating the most different colors, the soy sauce card itself also counts. But remember, we only count the dessert cards played during the current round.

The Mighty Spoon

(only for games with 3-8 players) Take back that dish you missed earlier by reaching over and grabbing it with your spoon.

A spoon card lets you take a card from another player’s hand. Nothing happens when you play a spoon card on your turn. But you can use it later for a special action.

To use it, say “spoon!” when all players are showing their played cards. Everyone plays their cards as usual. Then, say the name of any card you want.

The player on your left checks if they have that card in their hand. If not, the player next to them checks their hand, and so on, until someone says they have the card. They give it to you, and you play it right away. Give the spoon card back to the player you took it from, so they can add it to their hand.

If nobody has the announced card in their hand, then the spoon is discarded for the round. You put it face-up next to the game board and it gets shuffled back into the deck for the next round. If there’s a spoon card left over at the end of the round, it’s worth zero points.

Remember: When you ask for a certain type of card that has different versions like nigiri or maki rolls, you can ask for the general card type or one of the specific versions. If you ask for a specific card, the other players only have to give it to you if they have that exact card in their hand. If you ask for the general card type, the player can choose which version to give you if they have more than one. For example, if you just ask for “nigiri” and the player has a squid nigiri and an egg nigiri, they get to choose which one to give you.

The same goes for asking for “3 maki rolls” or just “maki rolls,” and so on.

Custom Requests

When you have a specific request or unique requirements, a special order is the way to go. Creating a special order allows you to tailor your purchase to your specific needs and preferences, ensuring that you get exactly what you want.

Let me explain how it works. Say you’re looking for a new piece of furniture for your living room, but you can’t quite find what you’re looking for in the regular inventory. This is where a special order comes in. You can work with a representative to design a piece that meets your exact specifications, from the dimensions to the fabric or finish.

The process begins with a consultation, where you discuss your requirements and preferences with the representative. They will guide you through the available options and help you make decisions based on your taste and budget. They might show you samples of different fabrics or finishes, allowing you to visualize how your custom piece will look in your space.

Once you’ve finalized the details, the representative will provide you with a quote for the special order. It’s important to note that special orders can take longer to complete than regular orders, as they require additional time for customization and production. However, the wait is worth it for a one-of-a-kind piece that perfectly suits your needs.

When you place the order, you may be required to provide a deposit or make a full payment upfront, depending on the store’s policies. This is to ensure that the order is committed to and to cover any costs associated with customization. The representative will provide you with an estimated delivery date, so you know when to expect your special order.

Once your special order is ready, the store will contact you to arrange delivery or pickup. It’s exciting to receive a custom piece that has been made just for you, and it adds a personal touch to your home. You can enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that your furniture is unique and reflects your individual style.

While special orders offer a lot of benefits, there are a few things to keep in mind. Because they are tailored to your specific requirements, special orders are often final and cannot be returned or exchanged unless there is a defect or damage. It’s crucial to thoroughly review the specifications and details before placing the order to ensure accuracy.

So, if you’re looking for something truly unique and made just for you, consider placing a special order. It allows you to have a personalized experience and ensures that you get exactly what you want. From furniture to clothing to custom-made goods, a special order puts you in control and allows you to express your individuality. Give it a try and enjoy the satisfaction of owning something that is truly one-of-a-kind.

(Only use in 2-6 player games) Want more of a dish you’ve already enjoyed? Just ask the chef for a special order!

A special order card can mimic any other card you’ve previously played in the current round. When you decide to play a special order from your hand, simply place it face-down on the table and point the top of the card towards the card you want to copy. Then, when the special order is revealed, place it on top of the chosen card to indicate that the special order is imitating it. The special order card will score points as if it were the card it’s copying.

If you haven’t played any other cards before using the special order, there’s nothing for it to copy, so it’s immediately discarded. Don’t worry though, it will be shuffled back into the deck for the next round.

Do you know what happens when you use a special order to copy a card that has multiple icons on it? It’s fascinating! The copy of the card is actually identical to the original card, with all the same icons. It’s like having a perfect clone!

Discover the Power of the Takeout Box

Don’t feel like eating one of your dishes right now? No problem! Save it for later and score some bonus points.

When you play, you have the option to flip face-down any number of cards you played in previous turns during this round. These flipped cards are no longer considered as the card shown on their front side. Instead, each of these flipped cards is worth 2 points at the end of the round. Just place the takeout box card face-up next to the game board – it’ll be shuffled back into the deck for the next round.

Remember: If you decide to flip a card that is being copied by a special order card, the special order card will still be considered as the card it is copying. Just make sure to remember which type of card the special order is copying.

Tea

Did you know that tea has a special ability to cleanse your palate? It’s true! After enjoying a big meal, a nice cup of tea can help refresh your taste buds and leave you feeling refreshed.

But that’s not all. Tea can also have an impact on your game! Let me explain how. During the game, you’ll find yourself collecting sets of cards with the same background color. At the end of each round, you’ll want to take a look at your collection and identify the set with the most cards.

Here’s an example to help you understand. Let’s say you have 1 wasabi, 1 squid nigiri, and 2 salmon nigiri cards. These 4 yellow cards would be your largest set. And guess what? Your tea would be worth 4 points!

Now, let’s talk about wasabi.

When you dip a piece of nigiri sushi into a bit of wasabi, it adds an extra kick of heat!

Now, here’s an interesting twist: when you decide to play a wasabi card, it doesn’t do anything on its own. However, the next nigiri card you play must be placed directly on top of the wasabi card.

Why is this important, you might ask? Well, this special stacking trick means that the nigiri card placed on top of the wasabi card will be worth triple the points at the end of the round! But hold on, there’s a catch: you can only put one nigiri on top of each wasabi card. So choose wisely!

Don’t worry, you have the option to play multiple wasabi cards throughout the round. However, keep in mind that a wasabi card without any nigiri on it at the end of the round is worth a disappointing zero points.

Now, let’s talk about desserts!

Have you tried Green Tea Ice Cream?

I love digging into a big bowl of ice cream after a meal. It’s the perfect way to satisfy my sweet tooth. And when the game is over, there’s 1, 2, or 3 green tea ice cream cards that are worth nothing. But if I manage to collect 4 green tea ice cream cards, I score a whopping 12 points! It’s like hitting the jackpot. Oh, and did I mention that you can even score multiple sets of green tea ice cream? It’s a deliciously sweet treat that keeps on giving. Speaking of treats, let’s not forget about pudding!

Hey there! Just wanted to chat about something that always brings a smile to my face: pudding! It’s such a delightful way to end a meal, don’t you think?

So, here’s the deal: when the game is over, we all take a look at our pudding cards. The person with the most pudding cards gets a nice little boost of 6 points. On the other hand, the person with the fewest pudding cards, even if it’s none at all, loses 6 points. Ouch!

Now, when it comes to a game with just two players, things are a bit different. The person with the fewest pudding cards doesn’t have to worry about losing any points. Phew, right?

Let me give you an example to make things clearer. Imagine we’re playing with Chris, Meredith, Kerry, and Andrew. Chris has 4 pudding cards, Meredith has 2, and Kerry and Andrew each have 1. In this case, Chris gets a sweet 6 points for having the most pudding. But poor Kerry and Andrew both lose 6 points for having the fewest. Better luck next time!

Talking about fruit…

Hey, I have a great idea to end your meal in a healthy way – with a variety of delicious fruits!

After the game, we all get to tally up our scores by counting the three types of fruit: watermelon, orange, and pineapple. It’s super simple! Just add up the icons on the top of your cards, and let me show you how the scoring works:

Fruit Type
Points
0 -2
1 0
2 1
3 3
4 6
5 10

Let me give you an example to make things even clearer. Chris has 0 watermelon icons, 1 orange icon, and 4 pineapple icons. Here’s how we score it: Chris loses 2 points for the watermelon, scores 0 points for the orange, and gets a whopping 6 points for the pineapple. So, in total, Chris earns 4 points! Now, let’s talk about Meredith. She didn’t play any fruit cards, so unfortunately, she loses 6 points. Better luck next time, Meredith!
