It's dinner time and you're spending it with family! Some of which you haven't seen in a long time. As we all know, big family dinners always bring chaos. Even the happiest of families get wacky during big gatherings. In The Family Dinner you’ll be playing as a dysfunctional family, having dinner together for the first time in a while. Each player acts as a member of the family. Play takes place over a number of courses with Ingredient Cards being used to drive the conversation and to shape what food is served. As you play you will be drawing a family tree that includes all players and extended family. The family is all here, let's start eating! —description from the publisher
