A BBQ with friends. What could possibly go wrong?

Barbecue is a co-op party game for 1 to 4 players.

Your mission is simple: host a barbecue in your backyard. Reality will be quite different.

Light the fire, grill the meat, serve your guests and earn money to upgrade your setup.

Everything starts peacefully. It only takes a few minutes for things to spiral out of control. The fire rages, smoke fills the yard, and someone is already sprinting toward the shop in a panic.

Manage the fire (or don't)

Wood, charcoal, gasoline — each fuel has its perks and its risks.

• Too much wood? Wildfire.

• Too much charcoal? Toxic smoke.

• A splash of gasoline to speed things up? ...Hope your insurance is up to date.

Cook, sell, upgrade

Grill sausages, merguez and steaks to earn money.

Invest in better equipment or blow it all on completely useless items.

No judgment.

Cross the road (if you dare)

The shop is on the other side. The problem? The road. Traffic doesn't stop for you.

Run, dodge, pray.

Sun goes down, chaos goes up

A day/night cycle changes the rules.

At night, you're grilling in the dark, the road becomes a nightmare, and the guests aren't any more patient.

Buy some lamps. Or don't.

Beer, trolling and sausage resurrection

• Drink beers — your controls won't thank you.

• Hose down your friends mid-cook with the garden hose.

• Friend down? Revive them by shoving a sausage in their mouth.

Built to last

No unfair game over.

The goal? Keep the party going as long as possible.

The shop catalogue is packed with items to unlock, making every session different. And when everything burns down? It's not a failure. It's the best part of the night.

Barbecue — The only game where burning the house down is the highlight of the evening.
