It's been awhile since Geek Night went on 'til 3am. And what a Geek Night. I've just introduced the usual crew to a board game (or will it end up as a computer game?) I thought up earlier in the week, and after a few playtest games to refine the rules and the cardset, we're really getting together something which is really enjoyable and a great laugh. It's like... Fluxx meets nanofiction. Like the trading element of Settlers of Catan meets the backstabbing of Munchkin, but with a better definate-length and less last minute struggles. It's got the exciting close finishes of Il Principe but it's as easy-going as Carcasonne.
Well... I like it anyway. And it got great feedback from the folks who sat around for three games of it this evening.
I'm thinking of calling it Neumann. Watch this space.
Yeah, had a good time- the game has good potential too. Although you did give me too much absinthe. I danced at the bay. DANCED.
