Surely they don’t have the license to keep using Simpsons characters? Asmodee will come down on this I bet.

Yeah for some reason it bothers me that Simpson imagery is being used to promote unrelated board games. It seems inappropriate and feels like a bad joke.

It looks like there is an unfortunate gameplay allowed here. Someone who gambles, and then misses out on the card they want, can simply take the rest of the deck and end the game. I downvote the offender, of course. But there is no way to report someone who simply takes a dive because they don't like the way the game turned out. The game is technically "complete" but it is no different than someone quitting in the middle.

It is very discouraging to have games end this way.

Why did this one not show as the features post? It is still CuBirds

There isn’t a way to block it that would make sense.
Don’t play with that kind of player. Block them (and hope you’re not matched with them in Arena.) At least it doesn’t happen too often- in my 46 plays, I haven’t encountered it yet.

Excellent choice. We often use this around the table as the last, light game of the night. Thanks for bringing it on board.

P.S. It's really awesome that you went as far as to put this additional picture together to make your joke work!
