Let's embark on this journey together, expanding our game knowledge and diving deeper into the strategic world of "Fried Potatoes." Happy gaming!
THE KEY TERMS:
Round: A complete game cycle consisting of four fights, where players compete to avoid receiving penalty points. Each round starts with a stake of one point. Only the winner avoids receiving points.
Battle: A phase within a round where players compete by playing a potato card and possibly a specialty card. The highest card in the determined color wins the fight. There are four battles, with the winner of the last fight winning the round.
Point/Penalty Point: A negative score for losing a round, resulting in moving forward on the game board. Each point moves the player one tile further.
Determining Color: The process by which the first played card sets the required color for that fight.
Matching Color/ Follow Suit: The rule that players must, if possible, play a card of the same color as the determined color in the fight.
FRIED Tile: The last square on the board, signaling the end of the game for a player who lands on it.
Group Effect: The effect of a specialty card that influences all players during a fight, not just the player who played the card.
