I feel like I could have known this is a Friedemann Friese game…

I love Bosh!. It has some great dishes for a dinner party, but also some simple things like Hummus and Baba Ganoush.

Yes! I think these also fall in the “can be explained within 1 minute” category

I think there’s an open issue for this on Github

Correct! Definitely in the first, not sure about the second

This seems to be a link to the current thread

Like a glove!

These are my go to games for larger groups:

• Codenames: A modern classic! Works best with 6 or 8 people.
• Decrypto: For a more gamey version of Codenames.
• Wavelength: Fun party game that spikes interesting conversations
• Concept: Don’t play to win, just play to have fun guessing

Anything with tiles works well, like Hive, Hanabi Deluxe, or Carcassonne. Dice games also work well, such as Pickomino. And there’s Crokinole, if your table can fit it
