At its core Pizza Theory is a short, yet focused strategy game in which players try to outwit their opponents to gain control of the board. The art for Pizza Theory was done by the very talented Charlie Bink (Railways Through Time, Botswana, Charon, SWAT). Backers of Pizza Theory can get an early release copy of the Anchovy Expansion!
