In Bonbon, you are an elite chocolatier on a mission to craft the most exquisite box of bonbons ever seen, but you won't be the only one building it.

The box starts empty, but each turn every chocolatier draws two chocolate pieces and places them in the available spaces on the tray. Each chocolate is either white or dark, and each comes with a unique topping. Finding the perfect flavour combination is your challenge. You'll also need to secretly bid on specific objective cards, visible to all players, hoping to meet requirements such as specific compositions, groupings, toppings or majorities by chocolate type.

When your rivals play, watch closely which chocolate pieces they place and where, that's how you'll figure out their secret bets. But stay alert: you have the chance to ruin their plans by placing a fake bid, a buglet token that will completely sabotage their strategy.

Once the bonbon tray is complete, the secret bets are revealed, and whoever built the best patterns and flavour combinations claims victory. Bonbon is designed by the acclaimed Eugeni Castaño and Eloi Pujadas, with delicious illustrations by Ariadna Altimira.
