February 18, 2011: Now Shipping!

January's ship date -- the official day we start shipping product from our warehouse to distributors -- was the 31st. Is that really fair to February? At the very least, I'd think it would be more fair to call it "the January/February ship date" . . . if that wasn't so wordy.

Whatever we call the ship date, two brand spanking new games have made their appearance on the shelves of your friendly local game stores.

Give Me The Brain

You think working in a fast-food restaurant is hell? This place is worse. All the employees are zombies (that includes you). The jobs are repetitive and gross. The customers ask stupid questions. And all the zombies have to share a single brain . . . and they keep dropping it on the floor.

In Give Me The Brain by James Ernest (Lord of the Fries), all the players are zombies, shuffling and moaning through their horrible jobs. Whoever gets rid of all his jobs first will win. Every turn, you can do a couple of things . . . and, if you're sneaky, you can also push a job or two onto the other players.

The catch? Some jobs actually require a brain . . . and there's only one in the whole restaurant . . . and the zombies keep dropping it.

Boxed game with 112 linen-finished cards, full-color illustrated rulesheet, and six-sided die. Stock #1802, UPC 837654320914. $19.99.

Munchkinomicon

It's the ultimate book of spells . . . the Munchkinomicon. But beware! If you aren't munchkinly enough, the Munchkinomicon will slip away and find a more suitable host. This set includes the Munchkinomicon and 14 of its deviously cheesy spells, like United I Stand, Eldritch Cleaver, and Unnatural Compulsion.

This is an expansion for ANY Munchkin game. It is not a stand-alone game. This is NOT a collectible or randomized set. Every Munchkinomicon pack is the same as every other.

Finseal pack containing 15 cards. Stock #4208, UPC 837654320938. $4.99.
