But the game board has great art.
Here’s the Kickstarter.

Scare me half to death.

[out of game] No recent submissions? I thought of a Haiku starting
. . . . Right in front of me
. . . . the world has changed for the worse
But wasn’t sure how many syllables has “World.”
I’d hate to get another reprimand.
