Okay, so I finally caved and bought Throw Throw Burrito after seeing it EVERYWHERE. And wow—this game is pure, unhinged joy.
First off, the concept is ridiculous (in the best way). It’s like if Uno and dodgeball had a baby, and that baby was a screaming, burrito-throwing maniac. You collect cards while dodging squishy foam burritos—yes, ACTUAL BURRITOS. The duels? Back-to-back, three paces, FIRE. Drama level: 10/10.
The rules are simple enough that my 8-year-old niece got it instantly, but the chaos keeps adults just as hooked. We played with six people, and halfway through, my aunt launched a burrito so hard it knocked over a vase (RIP). Pro tip: CLEAR YOUR BREAKABLES.
Also, the artwork? Adorable. The Oatmeal’s illustrations make even losing hilarious. And the burritos are SOFT—no injuries here, just pride bruises when you get nailed mid-laugh.
Downside: One burrito split after some... enthusiastic gameplay. But honestly? Worth it for the memories. This game turns any gathering into a slapstick comedy show. 10/10 would throw again.
