notes towards a redesign of Sid Sackson's Monad (1968) that's colorblind-friendly and makes it a bit easier to tell which pairs of cards qualify for the BONUS when combined, also it has goofy cartoon furries holding up fingers to tell you how much a card costs instead of big bold boring numbers
(note the saucy grin on the 36, six hands with six fingers apiece)
this is what the 2012 edition we played looks like, which is pretty much what every edition looks like, it's aggressively minimal and has the weird design choice that the "bonus" color pairings are NOT with the complementary color?
it does look weird until you view it greyscale. light and dark pairs
Idea: strip monad >:3
1) Each time you flip the ones over again, you must remove a piece of clothing
2) If you have no moves other than flipping the ones over and are completely nude, you must stop playing
3) When everyone is completely nude, whoever has the most monads wins
This also means the goofy cartoon furries can be horny cartoon furries
This is good!
I feel like there should be some rule playing with the closeness of “monads” and “gonads”…
... this all sounds suspiciously like dragon-maths...
