Our game draws heavy inspiration from Mexican culture, using its flavor, humor, and
energy to create a fun experience. Out of respect, we want to clarify some of the cultural elements
you’ll find throughout:
Lucha Libre: The high-energy world of Mexican professional wrestling, where wrestlers (luchadores)
wear colorful masks, perform dramatic moves, and embody larger-than-life personas. It’s a proud
tradition and cultural icon in Mexico.
Guacamole (Guac): A beloved dish made from avocados, lime, onion, and chili. In Mexican
households,
it’s both everyday food and a party essential — here, it becomes the “power source” of the game.
Barrio: A Spanish word for “neighborhood,” often carrying connotations of community, belonging, and
local pride.
Abuelita (Grandmother): A warm cultural figure symbolizing family, wisdom, and tradition.
References
to “abuelita” in the game are playful, celebrating the idea that grandmas pass down recipes,
stories,
and sometimes a bit of tough love.
Food & Festivity: Tacos, salsa, chilis, and mariachi-like imagery (guitar, candles, bottles)
appear as
visual motifs. These aren’t stereotypes, but tributes to the vibrant role that food and celebration
play in Mexican life. Our goal is not to reduce Mexican culture to clichés, but to celebrate its
energy, joy, and communal spirit in a lighthearted way. If you’re new to these traditions, we
encourage you to explore them beyond the game — real lucha matches, real Mexican food, and the
living
culture are even more powerful than what we can capture in cards and images.
