    AceTheSilver's Chez Geek (Other)

    [February 5, 2013 01:33:57 PM]
    Chez Geek is a multiplayer card game similar to Munchkin.
    =Players=
    All of the players in the game are roommates. Each player has a job which labels their income, free time, and slack points for the game. Players are able to spend income and free time on different activities to reach their designated slack goal.

    =Activities=
    Activities are cards that take one free time to perform and usually give the player slack points for doing them. Activity(TV) cards are special in that they can be played on another player to cancel an Activity they are trying to perform.

    =Items=
    Players may also spend one free time to go shopping, during which they can buy as many items as they have income to pay for (ie the Corporate Drone, with an income of 6, can spend his one free time to go shopping and buy up to 6 cost worth of items, or go to one activity, but not both.)

    =People=
    People cards are cards you can "call over" to your house. There are helpful people, like She-Who-Cooks and TV Queen, who add slack and/or boost slack in the room, and there are harmful people, like Choad Warrior and Clumsy Drunk, that make you loose slack or items every turn. You can place harmful people in your roommate's rooms with no die roll, but in order to get a helpful person in your room, you have to roll a 3 or higher on a d6(calling to see if they are home)

    =Whenever=
    Whenever cards are cards that can be played at any time, either helping the player who played it or harming the player who it was played on. Sometimes they even do both.

    =Game Play=
    The game started with myself as having a campus job(income 3, free time 2, slack goal 17), and my roommates being a bike messenger(income 2, free time 2, slack goal 19), a pizza delivery driver(income 2/4, free time 2, slack goal 18), and a corporate drone(income 6, free time 1, slack goal 22).
    Play proceeded fairly uneventful as each roommate spend their free time on activities like Hang Out at Cafe and Computer Games, or went shopping for Bubble Blowers and Microwave Popcorn. The Corporate Drone spent one turn to buy a GameStation, being the only one in the house who could afford it. A few turns in, I pulled the first person card of the game, allowing me to call She-Who-Cooks into my room. With a die roll of 4, she was home and came over; adding one to each of my 3 food items in my room. This brought me to my slack goal of 17 and, since my roommates could not stop her from coming over, won me the game.

    All in all, Chez Geek is a fun card game to play with a group of friends that appreciate geeky humor.
