Midwest GameFest 2017

Nuclear War Card Game Tournament

A humorous card game with a tongue-in-cheek view of international diplomacy, propaganda, and finally: nuclear holocaust! The card game where sometimes everyone dies and no one wins. Fast, silly, and fun. Come join Rick Loomis' tournament. Rules will be taught. Prizes will be given. And maybe you will win the coveted "We all died" button! Gaming legend Rick Loomis hosts a tournament for his world-famous Nuclear War Card Game. Rick is the president and founder of Flying Buffalo Inc, the oldest adventure game company still run by its original ownership. Flying Buffalo publishes Tunnels & Trolls, Grimtooth's Traps, Citybooks, the Nuclear War card game, Pizza Dice, Death Dice, Lost Worlds Combat Picture Books, Mercenaries, Spies & Private Eyes, and Ace of Aces.

Players engage in touchy negotiations until a warmonger pushes the button! Nuclear War is a card game that has been around for 50 years. Silly fun, easy to learn, fast to play. If you haven't played before I will teach you the rules. We'll play multiple rounds, so you'll get several chances to play.
