Fuck You! isn’t the real name of that game already? 😛

Zak said on October 26th, 2009 at 10:30 am

Technically, pretty much all of these games are The Game of White.

I can’t wait for TANK 2: The Re-tankening

msilver said on October 26th, 2009 at 12:21 pm

“Fuck You” could also be applied to Risk, and Monopoly.

Rob S. said on October 26th, 2009 at 1:12 pm

Oh, that last one’s *perfect.*

Wrath said on October 26th, 2009 at 1:36 pm

Are these all board games? I swear, some of them look like novels.

Evan Waters said on October 26th, 2009 at 1:57 pm

That’s the beauty of the old Avalon Hill games. (They’re even called Bookcase Games.)

My dad has Europe vs. The Arrows, I think.

LurkerWithout said on October 26th, 2009 at 2:00 pm

I think a couple might be old RPG rulebooks…

Hitler just needs someone to believe in him!

Here’s what I recognize:
Life
Settlers of Catan
Agricola
Axis and Allies
Diplomacy

I cannot fully express the rage I feel every time I play Sorceror’s Picnic. Every single time I’m almost done finishing one of the menial tasks that one of the lazy bastard wizards has dumped on me, the dice roll in exactly the wrong way. Then the local townspeople steal all of the magical plot devices I’ve collected, I get transported to the Dragon’s lair (which is either hemmed in by impassable mountains or on an island with no boats), and demons sit on my head for the next fortnight.

Fuck you, High Wizard Fucktrumpet. If it’s so important to the fate of the world that the elves have someone bring them shiny rocks and sing whalesongs to them, you can waddle out of your shack and do it yourself.

Hates that game, I do.

Wood for sheep… wish I’d thought of that when my then-boyfriend would get involved in hours-long Settlers of Cattan games. I have never met someone who liked that game who didn’t take it way, way too seriously.

Where the hell can I find a copy of the soundtrack for Rise of the Disco Nazis? Please, somebody I need it because it can only be one the greatest things ever bestowed upon humanity.

Keogh said on October 26th, 2009 at 10:42 pm

Disco and Nazis. Two things that are both unspeakable evil.

Yes, penguins are assholes.

And I have a cousin married to a guy obsessed with locomotives…

TANK 2: MY TANK IS FIGHT

Andraxx said on October 26th, 2009 at 11:17 pm

Hi, I’m going to be that guy… could anybody list what these games really are? Some of them seem interesting (from the covers alone, mind you) without the crazy titles.

MGK said on October 26th, 2009 at 11:21 pm

Hi, I’m going to be that guy… could anybody list what these games really are?

In order:

The Game of Life
The Plot To Assassinate Hitler
The Settlers of Catan
Rumis
Revolution: The Dutch Revolt 1568-1648
Fortress Europa
Wizards
The Russian Campaign
Agricola
Hey! That’s my Fish!
Rail Baron
Axis and Allies
Panzer Leader
Monad
Diplomacy

John Seavey said on October 26th, 2009 at 11:45 pm

You know, as much as I like the title, “Penguins Are Assholes”, I really think you could have left in “Hey! That’s My Fish!” and people would still have believed you’d photoshopped in a title. 🙂

Evil Midnight Lurker said on October 26th, 2009 at 11:52 pm

Eli: Yeah, that’s pretty much been my experience with Wizards too. >.<

Evil Midnight Lurker said on October 26th, 2009 at 11:54 pm

MGK? There’s a car full of black family right there on the cover of “White”…

MGK said on October 26th, 2009 at 11:56 pm

For shame! They have names, you know! They are Henry, Junetta, LaMar and Moesha Token!

Also note that the only white people on the box looking and smiling at them are the ones waving at them as they drive away.

Agog said on October 27th, 2009 at 12:21 am

Oh god, I have some of these.

Josh R said on October 27th, 2009 at 2:23 am

“I have never met someone who liked that game who didn’t take it way, way too seriously.”

I doubt there’s a single game my group could ever take totally seriously. With Settlers it’s pretty much sheep jokes all the way down.

Rachel said on October 27th, 2009 at 6:20 am

I love these, especially Agricola and Penguins are Assholes. Fuck, but that game is hard.

And the Catan game is nothing. We played Bang! once and it completely devolved into “stop banging me” and, “Hey Scott, I’m totally banging your wife” and “we’re all having one big gangbang”. It was exactly as mature as you’re picturing.

BlackBloc said on October 27th, 2009 at 1:09 pm

>>“Fuck You” could also be applied to Risk, and Monopoly.

You obviously never played Diplomacy if you think Risk or Monopoly come even close to ‘Fuck You’ territory.

Our university game group had a semester long Diplomacy game running every semester, where turns were done in one week increments and you had the whole week to find the other players and negotiate with them on campus. Just being seen in the presence of another player over the week could result in diplomatic clusterfucks as everybody suspected you were building an alliance with them.

Andraxx said on October 27th, 2009 at 9:34 pm

Thanks, MGK!

And the one time I played Settlers, at a conference thing, all I got was wood. Only wood. By the end of that weekend I was the Lumber Baron.

Chris K said on October 28th, 2009 at 12:09 am

Heehee. “Three sheep give me a wood.” Is there any other reason to play that game?

marvinmartian said on October 28th, 2009 at 10:09 pm

‘Castration’!

ie a photoshopped Operation box.
