Melted: A Messy Ice Cream Game

Build a big, messy, ice cream cone in Melted, a card game of light strategy and sweet sabotage.

Match flavors on the ever-changing cone or freeze out your competition with action cards that change flavors, swap your hands, or wipe the cone clean.

Be the first to empty your hand or get stuck, holding the mess!

How to play:
In Melted players make one big messy ice cream cone made up of three parts: the top, the middle and bottom of the cone.

Players add to the cone with a matching flavor card, or an action card that can change the active flavor, discard the whole cone, or swap everyone’s hands.

Set up:
Shuffle every card in the deck and deal seven cards to each player. Keep your hand hidden from other players!

Place the remaining deck in the center of the table as the draw pile.

The player whose birthday is closest goes first, starting the ice cream cone with a flavor card from their hand.

Gameplay:
On each player’s turn:
Play a flavor card that matches the active flavor into its corresponding position or on the cone. OR
Play an action card and follow its instructions.
