New card games

Can we talk about new games or we are only allowed to talk about Steve Jackson games? I would like to post a new thread about new games can I do that?

Absolutely. This is the forum for non-SJG card games -- all the other card game fora are for SJG stuff.

Thanks for your help, I am new to all the jargon use in these forums, what is SJG? Have you heard about reality card games or any new card games? Does any body knows about any new card game in the reality games category? A friend of mine also told me about an antogame he found, he is going to check this one out. I let any body knows about it once i have some information concerning this "antogame" thing. Antogame is like the oppsite of a game, something like that...

Steve Jackson Games

I don't know what a "reality card game" is -- is it based on reality TV shows? Does it try to be true to real-world physics when simulating whatever it's simulating? Please explain.

I've also never heard of an "antogame" (or "anti-game", if that's what you meant). It seems to me that a game's a game, even if it ends up having very different rules. Even Flux, which is a game about card games and the rules therein, is still a game (and a fun one, if a bit random).

I recently picked up "Let's Kill". We played it three times in one night and found it an alright game. - not quite up to SJG stuff in replay value - extremely tasteless (even more so when we started playing the game) and quite unexpectedly funny. Some interesting mechanics, fast play and easy to learn. Not at all suitable for younger players - the rules say 18+ and I wouldn't really disagree with the suggestion. If you enjoy mindless card games it's pretty good, comparable to Lunch Money, Family Business with the irreverence of Chez Geek.
