Awesome, Fun, Easy, Family Friendly Game
This game is really fun. Pretty simple for most people, but for those who it isn’t, they pick it up within a game. Awesome design, high quality cards, and it has been a staple for me and my wife to play. Introduced it to family and they love it. Fast paced game since you use the number of cards based off of the number of players you have.

Fast, Easy, Excellent for a quick game night
This is a basic, fast, excellent family game. The learning curve is slight and I'd put it around 10+ for the age bracket, but the concept shouldn't be overly tough for kid's a little younger. Price is fair for what you get and far less than some of the higher end. Replay value is medium, but an excellent one for your rotation.Recommend Card Sleeves: the whole game is based on picking up and moving cards

The most fun I've had with vegetables...
🎲 Point Salad (2019)🤓 Molly Johnson, Robert Melvin, Shawn Stankewich🏭 Alderac Entertainment Group (AEG).📝Spark Notes:⚡️Salad building⚡️Card drafting, set collection⚡️Choose recipes, collect ingredients.💼Brief Review:🟢Small and portable🟢Unique and enjoyable theme🟢Very easy to teach and to learn🟢Super light-weight yet strategic🟢There’s no one dominate strategy🟢Fast pace keeps the game exciting🌕Low variety in options can feel unrewarding.🎬Final Take:Point Salad is a small game that packs a big punch. Simply just a deck of cards with vegetables on one side and recipes on the other, the ever-changing vegetable market creates a playful challenge on the card-drafting genre. The recipe cards tell you how to score points (i.e. 1 pepper + 1 carrot = 5 points), and the vegetable cards allow you to fulfill those recipes. On your turn you’ll take one of three recipes, or two of six vegetables from the market, replace the taken cards with new ones, then the next player will do the same. By the time it’s your turn again the vegetables you were hoping for might be gone, or new opportunities may have arisen, and the game is played until all cards are drafted. After three rounds of doing so, players add up their total points to determine the victor. Point Salad really shines in its accessibility, portability, pace, and variability. It may turn off gamers who want more depth of strategy and variety of options. For me, this is the perfect travel game or filler between heavier games.

Fun game that will also teach basic math skills!
Colorful, eye-catching card game that will not only be fun for the family/friends, but also teach basic math skills of addition, subtractions, multiplication and even negative numbers. We play this with our grandchildren - ages 11, 10, and 8. It's interesting to what them strategize which point cards to collect and what "salad items" they want to pick up. And, although the game isn't over, they are continually adding up their points to see what they have as we play the game. Although played with cards, the playing area can change rapidly, depending on what cards the players before you choose. Would not be a game for in-the-car-while-travelling, since it is a card game and you need room to spread your cards out. But, the small sturdy box in which the cards and directions are in would travel well to be played once you got to your destination. Easy to follow directions. Family favorite and highly recommend.
