Power Lunch

Designed by Jessie Carr and Rob Anderson 1994. Published by Mayfair Games. For 2-6 players. Each player attempts to score the most points by melding personality cards onto the playing board, a restaurant. If the cards are not sets or sequences (rummy-style), then you need to give a reason why they'd be sitting together. When a player empties his hand or when all tables are closed, the hand ends and points are scored. Conversation flies in this card game involving well-known personalities at power lunches. Players score points for coming up with creative and plausible reasons why the celebrities in their hand would meet over lunch.
