Lord of the Fries (card game)

Matching and Shedding Card Games

Lord of the Fries is a card game created by James Ernest and published by Cheapass Games and Steve Jackson Games. It is set in the kitchen of Friedey's, a fast food restaurant of the damned, where the same fictional setting also hosts the games Give Me the Brain and Change. Players combine food cards into meals with humorous names, taken from menus such as Ratherbee's Steakhouse and Friedey's Long Wok, to earn points and get rid of cards. Steve Jackson Games released a new edition with revised components in 2008, and Cheapass Games issued a fourth edition in 2015 with four expansion decks. The game appeared on the Games magazine Games 100 list of 2003.
