Eat IT! The card game
Wed 28th July from 8pm
Eat It is a Collectable Card Game for two or more players (think Uno). made in SA by Adapt Enterprises. Add 8 Special Cards to a standard 52-card deck and deal out the cards. Each player takes it in turns to play cards on the stack. If you can’t beat it, you gotta EAT IT! (pickup the cards), with the object being to get rid of your cards first! Enjoy hours of fun serving up your friends!
We are holding a games night dedicated to playing the game so you too can experience the social phenomena of ‘eating it!
