Lunch Money
Well, last night we played Lunch Money. Rockin game. Cards represent assaults and ya gotta nab $20 from your opponents. Fun enough two player, but it really shines with 3 or more, and the more the merrier. Seems to be slightly therapeutic for some people, too.
Cards such as Tantrum and 2-Fer make for interesting one shots as you describe your attacks, and you can get great combos in, such as being Grabbed, and knocked senseless with a Powerplay/Hail Mary combo, while an Imaginary Friend Kicks you into oblivian. That's $14 you lose in one hit by the way. :(
So, last night we played 6 games, we being Nick, Wendy and I, and each won two games. Nick did land the afforementioned Powerplay/Hail Mary, but his Imaginary Friend was off hittin on girls or something, so I only lost $10. Hilarity ensued once again when Wendy Backlashed Nick's Tantrum, causing him to spaz out on himself. That's twice in two nights of Lunch Money she's done that to him, and each time I comment on him "forgeting his special helmet." One of those you had to be there jokes, probably.
One of the most damaging combos in the game happened thus. Someone called another player a Hippie, which lets everyone have a free basic attack on them. An Uppercut and a Headbutt later, saw the Hippie down $7, but then an Imaginary Friend came in with a big Kick for another $4.
Granted, I'm a little biased, but in my opinion, I had the best game winner of all. Early on, I was Grabbed and given Cooties. Cooties causes the loss of $1 each turn and can only be passed onto another player through a Grab. No other means of Cooties cleansing exists. Late in the game, with only $4 to her name, I managed to Grab Wendy, give her a really Weird (adds $2 to an attack) Wedgy and transfer Cooties to her. Wedgy's a $1 attack that makes all her futures attacks at -1 until she manages Freedom. She had a hand full of First Aids, though and managed to stay alive another couple turns. Long enough to knock Nick out with a shot to the Nuts.
Anyway, that's Lunch Money, and I need breakfast. Until next time, buy the game and beat up your friend's, only not in that "A video game made me do it" sort of way. Maybe play with your parents and convince them that some of what you do is indeed they're fault.
