Tiger Chef Story
⭐ Origin Story

Born from a 5-Year-Old's Imagination

Tiger Chef was born out of Zeph's love for Tigers and Cooking. For as long as he could piece words together, he always identified himself as a Tiger Chef — not a tiger who is a chef, but a human who cooks for tigers!

"That's not a Tiger Chef! A Tiger Chef is a Human who cooks for Tigers!!" — Zeph, age 5

We hope from playing this game, you'll find appreciation for these beautiful orange creatures, their bold stripes, and the dedication of Chefs everywhere!

How to Play Tiger Chef

On your turn, take up to 7 actions in order. Win 3 Rounds to be crowned the ULTIMATE TigerChef!

Discard a Meat Card in front of your Chef to collect a Tiger Card. (Once per turn)

Refill your hand from the Draw Pile back up to 5 cards.

🎮 Game Setup

Separate the Character Cards and Tiger Cards from the rest. Place both in the middle so all players can reach them.

2-player: Randomly remove 5 cards from the Draw Pile and set aside.

3–5 player: Use all cards from the Draw Pile.

Deal 5 cards to each player. The player who most recently saw a Tiger goes first!

🏆 End of Round

A round ends as soon as the first Chef receives:

  • 6 Tiger Cards — 2 player game
  • 5 Tiger Cards — 3–4 player game
  • 4 Tiger Cards — 5 player game

Round winner shuffles and deals for the next Round. Player with fewest Tiger Cards goes first. Ties: youngest goes first!

🔒 Block Cards

A Block Card on your Chef prevents Actions 3–5.

You CAN still take Actions 2, 6 and 7.

Use your Fix Card (Action 1) to remove the Block Card and unlock all actions!

⚠️ You cannot fix Block Cards on other Chefs.
