About Hey Waiter!

Hey Waiter! is the first published design from Tichu fan extraordinaire Anthony Rubbo, and while it's not a trick-taking game, it is a game with tricky card play. Each player is a waiter trying to deliver his stack of dishes before anyone else, with the dishes being represented by a stack of colored chips on a face-down card. Players each have a hand of cards, a few of which might be special action cards while the majority will be divided into two narrow rectangles.
