Bad Grandmas is another terribly broken print and play game.
Initially my roommate and I were drawn to it because of the illustrations. It
seems like a cute card game. Many of the games on this site are war based which
doesn’t appeal to me. So I saw “Bad Grandmas” and was instantly drawn by the
humor.
Though the resolution is lacking the images on the cards
make the game but offer nothing to game play other then a quick laugh. The tiny
text at the bottom have cute comments, but distract from gameplay.
I was excited to see that the rules seemed strait forward
and easy to understand. In addition the set up took ten minutes tops. The game
fell apart when we played…
The objective was to get the most points. Each player sets a
card down at the same time and the winner is decided on by who ever has the
highest card number. Additional bonuses are added by little comments at the
bottom of a rule card randomly selected at the beginning of the game (Flawed in
design because the text is upside down)
The game took less then ten minutes to finish and was
completely uneventful. The rules did not address scenarios such as but no
limited to if the players have a tie, or what the d6 score and 0 on two of the
cards mean. The d6 card we played as a normal 6 since we had no idea what it
was.
Going into the game I figured that it would be like Pokémon
cards but with grandmas and was excited to play. I was wrong…
