  • #19 ft. Nick Bentley of Underdog Games, Getting the Most Out of Games
    Dec 17 2024

    New game idea, shake the hands of as many former presidents as possible while being completely nude. Standard handshake is 1 vp. Fist bump is 2vp. Partially nude does NOT receive any partial points. You might be thinking, "this is a bad idea," to which I would respond, "have you tried it?" And you would respond "yes, and it didn't end well," to which I would respond, "but have you tried it more than once?"
