HOW TO SERVE MAN: Errata

We all make mistakes. Some mistakes are very large, like allowing humanity to rampantly impose its selfish will upon an entire planet full of sentient creatures and fragile ecosystems. Other mistakes are small yet annoying blunders made by very well-intentioned individuals who, perhaps, overlooked some errors in their first board game.

Speaking of which, the following is a list of Errata for HOW TO SERVE MAN. We’ll be making downloadable replacement images for each card soon but, until then, you’ll find some tips for correcting game materials below.

If you reveal a B.E.T.H. Judge when claiming the top card of the Judge deck, it does not count as your claimed Judge. You gain the B.E.T.H. Judge, then reveal another Judge to claim as per his ability. This may cause multiple B.E.T.H. Judges to be gained.

FIXING YOUR BROKE-ASS GAME

So now you know which materials are broken, but now what? Here are a few things you can do:

  1. Remove the cards from the game completely. Shun them. Hide them from the light’s warm touch. Place them in a shoebox and lock it deep within a closet that no one ever opens. Never waste another thought about your poor excuse for a father I MEAN the cards ever again.
  2. Play with the cards as they are. If a game breaking bug occurs, call out “SELF-DESTRUCT SEQUENCE ACTIVATED.” Before your chefs flee to to their escape pods, each player receives a Victory Point for unused ingredient token they have collected.
  3. Wait for us to create downloadable replacements (it won’t be much longer, we swear) and either:
    • Print the replacements to heavy card stock and slip into the same protective sleeve into which you place your other cards.
    • Print the replacements to adhesive sticker paper and CAREFULLY replace the front image with the corrected version
