Last year I saw a fun little card game at my local board game store. The thing that caught my eye was that it was billed as the card game where the only rule was that the rules were always changing. That intriguing little premise sold me on the game.
The game starts with each player drawing a card and then playing a card. As cards get played they can change these first basic rules, change the object of the game, or reset the rules back to a more basic form. It only takes a minute to learn as most of the rules change constantly and the new rules are printed on the cards that are played.
My group of card-playing friends loved the game. It was easy enough for girlfriends and wives to join in too. One of the best parts is that new players can be added in the middle of the game. There’s no real disadvantage to starting in the middle. Conversely, the game is not ruined if someone has to leave early. Not that that situation would happen. Games move fast and are lots of fun.
I just got Zombie Fluxx and can’t wait to try it out. As you play either of these games, just remember not to mispronounce the title.
