Overview

Game description from the publisher: Make a reservation for ewww at the Monster Café! Play cards to seat hungry monsters around tables filled with such revolting refreshments as Roasted Roadkill, Boiled Brains, and Stinky Sock Stew – but be careful as these monsters are extremely picky eaters. Feed them what they fancy, or else they may take a bite out of your score! Oh, and whatever you do, avoid the lemon sorbet!
