Monopoly, except you start the game with the bank owning everything

[–] somePotato@sh.itjust.works 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Real life the board game©

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 points 10 months ago

Actually just the Landlord's Game that the Parker Brothers turned into Monopoly.

[–] KpntAutismus@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Monopoly, except you live paycheck to paycheck. the game continues until everyone is either homeless, insolvent, died of old age or has comitted suicide.

[–] Toes@ani.social 3 points 10 months ago

Haha exactly

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 8 points 10 months ago

Isn't that how the game works? You buy everything from the bank, but at least the bank doesn't take advantage of that monopoly

Confetticini

Includes 2 reams of copy paper, 2 tiny shears and 2 sifters. First team to complete their ream after checking it will fit through the sifter wins phase 1. After which you get to open the secret packet which contains rolls of tape to put them back together and the pieces must fit inside the original copy paper box.

Never Have I Ever: Civic Duty edition

Never have, I ever littered.

Never have I ever voted for someone without researching them

Never have I ever stayed home and not voted. Because I just didn't feel like it.

Never have I ever Shopped at a store that I knew was using unethical business practices because it was cheaper.

Never have I ever Shopped at a store that I knew was using unethical business practices because it was cheaper.

Never have I ever blamed poor people for capitalism.

[–] gibmiser@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago

Hey, gotta make the free market capitalists feel bad somehow... maybe

[–] squid_slime@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I'd play that

Would imagine most would go blind

Tomorrow - a game about depopulating the world to sustainable levels through the use of clandestine viruses, wars, unrest, economic policies

[–] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

That honestly sounds kind of fun, in a dark humour sort of way. Similar to the old game Go For Broke, where you're trying to lose all your money.

You could even have it be an Among Us style thing, where ostensibly everyone is trying to keep people alive, but one person is secretly trying to undermine efforts and cause depopulation.

[–] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Oh wow, sounds great! 😄

[–] the_stat_man@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

100% would play this game

[–] roamic@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Not a board game, but 9/11. Which is a combination of Jenga and Gorodki.

According to my mom, "Garbage Pail Kids" was this (besides the 'game' part of TCG)

[–] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

I’ve never thought of it that way but it fits.

Pedophilia Trivia - A card game where you guess as closely to correct as possible. Question types would include, 'As of 2023, where was the biggest pedophile ring ever found?' 'How many Catholic clergy members have been convicted of crimes to date? (2023)' 'What US state has had the most reported pedophiles from 2010 to 2020?' 'How much money has the Mormon church paid out to victims of sexual abuse by appointed leaders of the church, to keep them quiet?' 'How many cases have there been of drag queens sexually abusing kids?'

[–] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

This is just an ultra specific version of trivial pursuit.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 7 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Kal-toh.

The concept would make it hard to sell since it's never explained how the game actually works and is also extremely difficult.

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Like selling people a bag of broken glass, and giving them a picture of a glass swan. The ultimate puzzle!

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 4 points 10 months ago

I remember a joke about a guy coming to a puzzle store and wanting harder and harder puzzles. In the end, he gets a picture of bread and a bag of breadcrumbs.

[–] M500@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Circumcision it’s a game where you have to circle your opponent in precision movements.

Foreskins! is a golf game, a card-based round of skins, with each player shouting, "Fore!" at the start of each turn.
