My dear Hobbes, who did you lose?

This thing. It is beautiful.
Doesn’t it also end with you literally exploding Hitler’s face?
Ping me back with your thoughts if you find yourself a copy!
If you like Horrified, you should try and track down the Ravensburger Wonder Woman game. Similar style but has an awesome mechanic to prevent coop quarterbacking.
Players strategize using a set of face up cards, but receive some face down cards afterward and have to program 3 actions using the whole set without communicating, adapting plans based on the newly revealed cards. Then each action plays out simultaneously for all players. It makes sense in action and is really quite elegant. I’m a big fan.
Cottage Garden is very satisfying. You Tetris together garden pieces to fill plots and you can cover a single spot with a sleeping kitty. There’s scoring and competition, but it’s not antagonistic in any way.
I’m also a big fan of cooperative games in general.
Dead Reckoning because John D. Clair is a beautiful madman.
Wave can stay dead though. I’m okay with that.
Google has sucked for a very long time. They’re greedy, monopolistic sociopaths that scrubbed “don’t be evil” from their principles pretty much the second there was a buck to be had from it.
How much slamming will it take to stop the full-tilt fascism train? Are we almost there yet?
Obviously. That’s what brown people do, right? The clearly authoritative (checks notes) rich white Nazi on TV told me.
I think this may be a relatively effective angle for making MAGA second guess themselves. The “did I do a good job daddy?” characterization is accurate but also pushed hard against their completely unearned but overactive sense of individualism and independence.
Wonder if anybody’s had any luck making red hats deeply uncomfortable with themselves this way.
