Mayday Games started out making card sleeves, but has since expanded to publishing games. They range from simple card and strategy games to giant crokinole boards. At Origins they were highlighting a card game and a word game.
Cahoots is a trick-taking game without trump. Each player has three suits that they want to get, and the players on each side of you will have a suit in common. With more suits and fewer ranks than a typical deck of cards, you can find a lot of strategy in the game.
Poetry Slam tests your rhyming and your creativity. You need to make others guess a word you come up with, but you have to do it with a rhyme. What makes it challenging? The letters you can use for your word start to disappear as the game goes on.
Check the video for more information about both games.
While not working as a Database Administrator, Keith Schleicher has been associated with Gaming Trend since 2003. While his love of video games started with the Telestar Alpha (a pong console with four different games), he trule started playing video games when he received the ill-fated TI-99/4A. While the Speech Synthesizer seemed to be the height of gaming, eventually a 286 AT computer running at 8/12 Hz and a CGA monitor would be his outlet for a while. Eventually he’d graduate to 386, 486, Pentium, and Athlon systems, building some of those systems while doing some hardware reviews and attending Comdex. With the release of the Dreamcast that started his conversion to the console world. Since then he has acquired an NES, SNES, PS2, PS3, PSP, GBA-SP, DS, Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One S, Gamecube, Wii, Switch, and Oculus Quest 2. While not playing video games he enjoys bowling, reading, playing board games, listening to music, and watching movies and TV. He originally hails from Wisconsin but is now living in Michigan with his wife and sons.
