It's not just a sandwich... it's a great example of a Three Letter Acronym that can win you a game of Word Fluxx. If you have the Keepers B, L, and T in play while the Goal is Three Letter Acronym, you've won! Who knew the card game of ever-changing rules was this delicious?

Ice Dice is a fast & simple press-your-luck dice game. Collect 3 monochrome trees to win! Simple, right? Until you roll the same color twice & bust! Stressful? Yes. Fun? Very! But don't take our word for it, check out what folks are saying about Ice Dice then try it for yourself!
Quote bubble that reads, "Simple end of night closer. -Icheyne on BGG" next to another that reads, "I own the original version & Pyramid Arcade. I want to buy the IceDuo version too. -PlatinumBeetle2 on BGG" above an image of the bank of pyramids and two dice in Ice Dice with a thought bubble that reads, "A fun little push-your-luck game, that works great as a filler between bigger games. Do you take the chance and roll just one more time? Or do you play it safe and grab just what you know you can safely get. -ElectricCoffee on Board Game Geek"

Jess & her kids played Hot Streak from @cmyk.games at game night this week. You bet on which mascot will win with side bets on a random thing that may or may not happen. Will your mascot cross the finish line or be disqualified? It's hilarious fun. What have you been playing? #WhatDidYouPlayMondays

Cat Fluxx is being proofed again for its first reprint & we called in experts to get the job done. Neko is a pro supervising as Georgie checks each card. If you weren't able to get Cat Fluxx yet, more is on the way soon. This is one of the fastest reprints we have had to run!

Ice Dice was designed by Andy Looney at his first Burning Man when he realized he needed a simple yet fun game for folks to play with the colorful Looney Pyramids. Decide whether to press your luck or take what you've collected on your turn before you bust! Have you played yet?
Making the Game: Ice Dice written next to the Ice Dice Pyramid Arcade badge with the quote: "I had the core ideas for my 19th pyramid game at my first Burning Man event. That’s when I thought up the dice. I needed a mechanism that would allow the players to collect 1-3 pieces each turn, building towards a set collection victory… but instead of earning choice pyramids by solving a complex puzzle, what you get is determined by a simple, random process." Andy Looney with the Looney Labs logo and an image of 5 colors of pyramids in 3 sets of 3 sizes with two dice then 2-3 players, 10-20 mins, push your luck, and somple play written across the bottom

Not only does it come with a ton of great games, it is the single greatest sandbox for [game] design imaginable.
