Pizza Piles is a comparing game which also builds up some initial skill with counting and numbers. Like most of our games, it is cooperative: you work together to get all the pizzas done (… in the right way).
All players have a number of cards showing incomplete pizzas. Yours might show a pizza with only tomato on it, while another player has tomato and cheese. On your turn, you simply continue the current pizza, following one rule.
Your card must show AT LEAST all the ingredients on the previous card! (Ingredients obviously can’t just disappear as you’re preparing the pizza!)
This means players are constantly comparing the current pizza with the cards in their hand. Which one has matching ingredients? Do they all match? In what order must we play them so that we never run out of valid moves? If you play a card that adds too many ingredients to this pizza at once, you’ll likely run into trouble later …
The base game is incredibly simple to teach and play, but already practices the right skills in a fun way. Once you can comfortably beat that, you can move to the many expansions. They add special actions to pizzas, rules about undercooking and burning, ingredient counting, wildcards, and more!
