Farscape: The Card Game
Farscape is one of my favorite science fiction series, though like many, its life was too short. You can relive the adventures with the print-and-play Farscape card game.
Unexploded Cow Print and Play Game
Unexploded Cow is a commercial product from Cheapass Games, but you can get a free print and play version at the link. The game has an hysterical premise: that bovines suffering from mad cow disease are being used to solve the problem of unexploded bombs in Europe left over from the wars.
Witch Trial Print and Play Game
Witch Trial is one of Cheapass games most popular products. You can get a print-and-play version of this game at the link.
In Witch Trial, you play an attorney at a prestigious law firm. You will act as a prosecutor or defender in several cases involving unmarried women, free thinkers, vegetarians, the homeless, and other undesirable types. While witchcraft per se isn’t really a crime, it’s customary to bring suspects into court on related offenses, such as card playing, smoking, and tampering with the post.
This game requires lawyer-like reflexes, a little bit of luck, and the willingness to bargain when you know you can’t win.
Battlestar Galactica Express Game – Now Dark Moon
Dark Moon is a free print and play board game that originally began life as Battlestar Galactica Express. From the BGG description:
In Dark Moon (formerly known as BSG Express), players are blue collar miners working at the edge of space, draining the mineral deposits from Saturn’s largest moon, Titan. When an incident occurs, infecting some of the crew with an unknown pathogen, things begin to rapidly spin out of control. Players must perform repairs, maintain life support, and fortify the shield that protects the outpost from Titan’s harsh environment in order to survive long enough for rescue to arrive. However, not everyone is interested in survival. Whom can you trust when your best friend might be trying to kill you?
Roll dice, point fingers, quarantine players, and (maybe) betray your friends, all in 60 minutes. Will you escape from Titan, or will you perish on the Dark Moon?
