#857; In which the Old is New Again

Comic Transcripts

[[A standing woman and a sitting boy are conversing in a house.]]
Sitting boy: Haha, check out this super-weird video!
It’s a sitcom…about Nazis!
I swear it’s real!

Standing woman: That’s…Hogan’s Heroes.
Sitting boy: You KNOW it???
Standing woman: KNOW it? I watched reruns every day after school!

Standing woman: I guess I never realized someone wouldn’t know it.
It seems like a known part of the culture, like the Flintstones or something.
But then I remember you were born in 2003!
Sitting boy: The Flintstones?

Standing woman: …You do know the Flintstones, don’t you?
Sitting boy: Oh, of course.
That’s the thing they make fun of on Family Guy, right?

In addition to buying things directly from me, the normal way, my game Bolted! is also now available on Amazon dot com.

On that famous website, you can also get the Creature-Crafting Magnets Set, which is made of the same artwork from the game, but is just a weird little trinket (not a playable game).

My kiddo made the elaborate version below to show off just how many magnets you get in the set (it’s 150 pieces in all — this isn’t even all of them).

Also now on Amazon is my set of Multi-Purpose Greeting Cards — a full dozen cards with envelopes in a fancy, unbranded, foil-stamped box!

Event alert!

I’ll also be showing off Bolted! at Greenwood Games, an event in Seattle this Saturday:

Greenwood Games is a free, all-ages community game event that invites players to spend the afternoon walking Greenwood Avenue from 65th to 80th, collecting clues, cracking puzzles, and discovering games made right here in Washington.

Think of it as Pride Hop, ArtWalk, and the Gumshoe all rolled into one, except the whole thing is built around games and puzzles.

Local game designers will be set up at different places along Greenwood Avenue in Phinney Ridge (near Ballard). My specific spot will be the “Holy Mountain Phinney Ridge Taproom”. All the information about all the different games & venues is on the website!

(If you’re in Seattle generally but not free tomorrow, Bolted! is also stocked at Blue Highway Games in Queen Anne.)

Next week, I’ll be at Gen Con! I personally will be hanging with my buddy Sam Logan at BFE Webcomics, booth #1217… but I have it on good authority that copies of Bolted! will be available at the CRWN Studios booth, #2549.

Visit one booth! Then the other! The order…is up to you.
