Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza is a fast-paced hand slapping game. We enjoyed playing it and we can’t wait to play with family and friends once we are allowed to go out and gather. Playing it takes away the boredom and the sleepiness during a lazy and tiring afternoon.
The game is simple. Players lay down theirs cards in the middle (called the card pile) one at a time while saying Taco, then Cat on the next card, then Goat on the next card, then Cheese, then Pizza, then Taco again…
If the card matches the word, like if it’s your turn to say Goat and the card you put down is also a Goat, everyone else has to put their hands on the card pile. The one who puts his/her card down last, gets all the cards in the pile. The winner of the game is the first player to put down all his/her cards.
Sounds simple but it gets really confusing.
Here’s our Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza Card Game Review.
Easy to Play. The game play is pretty simple but confusing. That is what makes it fun. Yet, anyone can learn the game in less than 10 minutes. Kids and adults will surely enjoy this game. No special skills required. You just need lots of concentration and fast hands.
Wholesome Family Game. The game is recommended for ages 8+ but as long as younger kids can understand the mechanics, they can play too. Age is not a factor here. Everyone can play from bunso to lolo and lola. I even think kids would have an advantage since they will move quicker.
DADDY TIP: Adults should be extra careful in putting down your hands. You might smash on smaller hands if you get too excited.
Fast and Fun. The game is fast. It can be over in less than 15 minutes. Which means you can have several sessions in a day. It doesn’t get monotonous. After several days of playing, I still can’t master it. I still get confused. There’s always a different reason to laugh. It makes each game unique and memorable. We still laugh about our mistakes from the game a week ago.
Affordable. The game costs 600 PHP only at the Gaming Library. It’s cheaper than other popular card games and I find this one a lot more fun and more inclusive. I find the price quite a steal. Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza is sold at Amazon for 9.99 USD.
The Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza Card Game we got was the Philippine Edition. Thus, the instructions were in Filipino. Part of the fun was letting Gab read and understand the Filipino instruction. He then told us how to play the game. I did help him define some of the words but I was a good test on his Filipino. 😀
Here’s a video on how to play the game. It’s in English.
