It seems like of all the games reviewed on the Dice Tower, Tom gets to review the ones I'm least likely to ever play or recommend. He does review some games I like (or would want to try), but he's also the one who reviews the "crap games". :) He's exactly right about the people at the table next to you getting annoyed. I was annoyed just watching the description. If anyone ever brings this to a meetup I attend I will not be attending it again. haha
Tom, you always complain (rightfully) about these kinds of games where they force you to do silly stuff. And now your friend (co-designer) releases one and you say you like it? I'm confused. Is this an honest opinion or are you nicer because it's your friend's game?
All my reviews are honest. I don't know why I would have to say that. This isn't a game I would play with other gamers, but it was a huge hit with my family. It is what it is.

Makes me think of Tenzi meets Quelf.
NO NOT TENZI😨
This seems like a step backwards in board game design even as a kids game.

He did also really enjoy Happy Salmon which is also a silly game.....
