NEWS: Fruits Basket Card Game

It's more of a design than a mechanic, and Deadlands was an actual TCG so you'd have to make some effort to get up to a 52-card playing card deck if that is what you wanted. As to who borrowed what idea from where, I could not say.

I think of FB as something along the lines of an UNO deck. You need that deck to play the card game on the cover, but you can play other games/variants with that deck as well.

The guy at the Otakon panel said something like that. It's going to be a one buy deal, so you buy one box and it has all the cards. In this case, it may succeed as a collectors item since its one stop shopping for FB fans, and its over with. I dunno, I think the idea is rather original, and might be kinda neat. I mean, if you said a game where you roll around a gravity ball and pick up objects around the world would be addictively entertaining, I would have thought it was a joke. Originality can do some pretty amazing things.

But you know, I miss the heyday of cheesy board games based on pop culture properties. If the price was reasonable I wouldnt mind checking out a cool, yet simple board game based on my favorite anime properties.

Am I alone on this?

Sailor Moon = The Boardgame? I'd play it.

Heck, I remember playing Pokemon Monopoly once. Or would that be Pokeopoly? Anyways, it was kind of fun, but a little confusing.
