Thanks to
Inexplicable DeVice for bringing a new board game to our attention.
[via]
The following is a loose description (taken from
here) of HouseBoy: The Board Game...
“You and the other players are “house boys” in the home of the gay, wealthy, and elderly Jonathan Glamcock, who is in his last days. Your goal is to suck up to Jonathan by doing chores around the house in hopes of winning his good favor (and, in the end, his fortune)– but you can’t resist boinking the other boys as well, despite the cameras all around the house spying on you.”
From the publisher:
“The best player is the one that gets the most action with the other house boys while keeping a façade of faithfulness to Jonathan by doing the most chores and thereby winning his entire fortune.”
We ask you now to adjourn to the Infomaniac Games Room to test out the game and give us
your version of what happens.
