Overview

What ABG knows about this game

Avocado Smash is a fast-paced snap variant where the first player to get rid of their cards is the winner. The first player starts at one and the next players follow in sequence up to 15 avocados, then it goes back to one avocado and so on. If a card happens to match the number being said on that turn then that is a smash! All players have to smash their hands down in the middle of the table and the last player to react takes all the cards from the center. There are a couple of special cards in the Avocado Smash deck. The first of these is a SMASH! card. This means it is an automatic smash and the last player to react has to pick up all the cards. The next one is the Guacamole card. When this card is revealed all players must shout 'GUACAMOLE!'. The last player to react must pick up the centre cards. However, if a player smashes on a Guacamole card then they must pick up all the cards. The last card is a change direction card and when this card is revealed you must immediately change direction. This change stays until the end of the round or until another change of direction card is revealed. The first player to get rid of all their cards is the winner of Avocado Smash, providing they survive the next smash! If two players run out of cards at the same time then the first player to react to the next smash wins! -- The game is an implementation of the traditional snap variant and drinking game "Irish Snap".
