Flush!--Finally, a game that sprays water all over the room! God has finally answered every single one of my prayers! I never need to pray again!
What the hell is going on here?:
Crazy creatures have invaded, and players must capture the creatures with their headband plunger and then flip them into the toilet, while the toilet is turning on its swiveling base. Work fast before the toilet flushes! The most fun youve ever had with the toilet!
"Headband plunger?" What's that?
Oh. Sure. Of course.
Flush! claims to provide "the most fun you've ever had with the toilet." Apparently, Fotorama Games has never heard of a blumpkin. DO NOT Google that, grandma!
Grandparent Talk--Ask a kid what he/she is looking for in a game and you'll most likely hear, "Anything that makes it easier for me to communicate with my grandmother, really." Yes, kids love chatting with elderly people, almost more than anything. Continuum Games has turned this passion for chatting up geezers into the un-thrilling, non-game Grandparent Talk. Here's how you "play?"
Simply pick a card, ask the question and watch your family history unfold.
Questions include such epic conversation starters as "Where did you hang out when you were a teenager?", "What have you been able to do as a result of saving money?" (Really? A kid is going to ask this question and care about his grandma's answer?), and "Grandpa, what kind of pets did you have?" Is this as hard-hitting as the questions get, Continuum Games? Pets and savings accounts? What about the real questions we want to ask our grandparents: "Am I in your will?", "How much money is coming to me according to your will?" and "Can I have this Niagara Falls commemorative plate after you die?"

Dirty Dancing: The Board Game--You've been forced to watch the movie with your wife, now be forced to play the game. That's right, University Games developed a board game based on the movie Dirty Dancing. That could be fun, right? How do you play?
Players relive the summer magic as they travel the game board, full of movie imagery. Each turn, they take on a challenge. Challenges touch on the story, the music and dancing, and the actors and actresses who made this film a classic. Challenge categories include Who Said It? The Entertainment Staff, Feel the Music, Behind the Scenes and Surprise Dance Move. Even players who answer incorrectly get a chance to move ahead if they are willing to strut their stuff. The grand finale, of course, is the talent show.
So, every game of Dirty Dancing: The Board Game ends in an impromptu talent show? That sounds worse than anything ever.
The box claims that I will have "the time of [my] life" playing this thing. If somehow that doesn't happen, can I return the game for a full refund? I hope so because I promise I won't have fun.
