Lord help me...
Apr. 9th, 2006 10:39 pmSeveral years baack at a little con named Arisia there was a nice man in the games room, a Man in Black for Steve Jackson Games, who promised that there'd be a hot game of Illuminopoly later that weekend. Alas, the game did not run and no evidence of such a game had been found. Later I learned that it was supposed to be an amalgamation of Steve Jackson Games card gameIlluminati and Parker Brother's boardgame Monopoly.
Apparently it was just a joke to get us to come by the table. I was crushed. Well, OK, call it massively disappointed. Not being flirted with by pretty girls at the con, *that* could have crushed me :)
The thought of the game kept floating through my mind, though.
Well, a few days back I wrote up some rules while half-asleep. I checked them over tonight, noticed no major spelling or continuity errors, and just sent them off to Steve Jackson. Hopefully he'll chuckle.
