Games Party
Jul. 15th, 2006 09:36 pmToday I accidentally slammed myself into a metal wall several times. And I threw myself into a pit of death. Also, I accidentally killed Edwin. Twice.
(This was the first time I've come in last in the game of Robo Rally in a long time. Robo Rally is back in print. The robots are now plastic instead of metal. But the flags are cooler, and you no longer all start in the same place.)
Then I built three fabulous inventions. First I built a laser fence, which, once completed, protected my next partly-built inventions from theft. Then I built a power drain which gave me the powers of any other player's invention during each turn. That let me build my next invention quickly, my robotic Igor. You wouldn't believe what you can build with gummy bears and nanoconfabulators. I also got my hands on a ten-pound ball of tin foil.
(The power drain was the key to getting me just enough victory points to win the game of Igor.)
