📖 About This Game
At the beginning of the game, each player must choose his borscht: it can be a dish with pears, beans, or even fish! But if it is quite easy to find potatoes, and it does not cost much, then you still have to look for prunes in the market. That is why in your turn you can exchange several products from your hand for one more expensive one from the market, several cheap ones from the market for one expensive one of your own, or simply get cards from the deck.
And of course, the main action in the game is cooking borscht! You need to lay out all the ingredients specified in your recipe, add sour cream and dill to taste, and you can also use pepper to make your competitors' dish more spicy.
