Official Rule Breakdown
According to the Sushi Go! Official Rulebook, players score the cards they have collected at the end of a round. While the rulebook provides a specific detailed breakdown for Sushi Roll scoring (where the player with the most icons scores 6 points and the second most scores 3 points), Pudding cards are part of the player's collected set. The game consists of 3 rounds, and players must track their collected cards to determine the final score.
Example Play Situation
Alice collects three Pudding cards throughout the three rounds. Bob collects only one Pudding card. At the end of the game, Alice's total Pudding count is used to calculate her final score against Bob's.
