A few years ago, my friend Andrew had an idea that he could create a new game. He created prototypes, held countless play parties, and refined it. Carrying on, he found a designer, a printer, convinced his wife to let him dig into savings, got people to preorder - and is now the owner of lots of boxed sets of Anomia. I got mine yesterday and it looks great.
The game is sort of a cross between war, trivial pursuit and a game called Set that my eight year old nephew kicked my ass at. The photo above of the uncut sheets shows a bit of detail. You flip[ cards then when you match the pattern the players need to yell out the item listed; detergent vs. biblical prophets, Japanese Monster movies against operas. It's fun. I have deep admiration that he brought this to fruition. Though he has sold a lot through preorder, he has some other copies to sell so check them out at Anomia Press.
