Dice Game

Cookie Fu

February 16, 2011

Game designer Brian Kowalski gives us a rundown of his dice throwing game Cookie Fu. This, of course, leads Mike and Brian into a discussion about cookies. C is for cookie and that’s good enough for the Game Night Guys.

Photos of Brian’s Mr. Bento are on Flickr as are a ton of other people’s.

After we played, we had dinner at China Chili. It was t-t-t-tasty tasty.

Hurry Up!

November 15, 2010

The Game Night Guys review a new fast-paced dice game called Hurry Up! this week. We enjoyed playing this game so much that we’ve decided to give one away to a lucky listener. It’s our first contest and a shameless plug for reviews. Hizzah!

We also talk about being interviewed on The Little Metal Dog Show and contributing to Unload with Madge and Dave, our current fanboy crush.

Big thanks to Maureen with RandomLine for sending us this game to review. Maureen rocks!
