Family Pastimes / Bus Depot Diner - A 3-in-1 Co-operative Game
You operate the Depot Diner together. When a bus pulls up and the hungry passengers pile out with only 30 minutes to eat, you have to work as a team to see that they get fed and leave happy. The passengers arrive and the servers scurry out of the kitchen with food while the boss directs the traffic, trying to please everyone. It's tough when a customer finds a bug in her salad or when a server slips on a greasy spot and spills the soup! Quick-paced and challenging, with plenty of clever strategies for teens and adults. This can be played by few or many and with a variety of ages. It comes withthree sets of rules, for younger children (5-7 yrs), middle years (7-12 yrs) and tough adult play - it's three games in one box!Includes: 12 x 12" board; boss marker; cards for food, customers and events; 3 sets of rules.Play as friends, not as enemies!Family Pastimes games foster the spirit of cooperation. Players help each other climb a mountain, make a community, complete a space exploration... They never play against each other. After all, the initial impulse to play a game is social; that is, we bring out a game because we want to do something together. How ironic then that in most games, we spend all our efforts trying to bankrupt someone, destroy their armies - in other words, to get rid of one another!AtFamily Pastimeswe believe that people of different ages and abilities should be able to play side by side, each making their best contribution. We are all there together when we finish the game to take joy in our successes and wonder how we might work together even better the next time we play. Thus, Family Pastimes games will prove to be a friendly form of fun. Socialization, entertainment, academic learning, character growth, etc. - whatever your objectives, we invite you to realize them by cooperative means. We hope you enjoy playing and learning together!
