Download or read book Got Game written by Leisl Grimm and published by . This book was released on 2024-06-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most books about board games are boring. This is not that book. It's games through the lens of family, psychology, archaeology, art, design, culture, and race. It's about bad rulebooks (and some are really bad). It's about how hexagons became the foundation of many contemporary games. It explains how the polio epidemic sparked the idea for Candyland. It asks: Why do we have house rules in Uno? Why are narratives of imperialism SO prominent? How do games reflect our cultural perspectives on gender, race, money, and history? Maybe you're more interested in art. No problem. I discuss layout, fonts, grids, color choice and cohesion. There's a reflection on how bananas are the perfect user design experience. But don't worry, games are there all along, rattling memories of your own nights playing Sorry, Yahtzee, Uno, Monopoly, Scrabble, Settlers of Catan, or any tabletop game you love. It's time with family, friends, lovers, acquaintances, and total strangers who play to pass time, to share history, to teach, to challenge, to strategize, and to comfort us in the face of our own struggles. This is the world of games I love. Open the book and have fun.

And now the mystery, intrigue, romance, and adventure of this magnificent saga come to life as never before. A GAME OF THRONES A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE: BOOK ONE With a special foreword by John Hodgman Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King’s Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert’s name. There his family dwells in peace and comfort: his proud wife, Catelyn; his sons Robb, Brandon, and Rickon; his daughters Sansa and Arya; and his bastard son, Jon Snow. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse—unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances. Now Robert is riding north to Winterfell, bringing his queen, the lovely but cold Cersei, his son, the cruel, vainglorious Prince Joffrey, and the queen’s brothers Jaime and Tyrion of the powerful and wealthy House Lannister—the first a swordsman without equal, the second a dwarf whose stunted stature belies a brilliant mind. All are heading for Winterfell and a fateful encounter that will change the course of kingdoms. Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Prince Viserys, heir of the fallen House Targaryen, which once ruled all of Westeros, schemes to reclaim the throne with an army of barbarian Dothraki—whose loyalty he will purchase in the only coin left to him: his beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys.

After leaving her oppressive home behind to make it as an artist, Abbie has sworn that she will remain single and create a life for herself. But when she risks losing her art gallery and having to go back home, Abbie is desperate. To pay her bills, she must become an artist to the stunning billionaire Thomas Maxwell. That's fine—except that it turns out Thomas is also in trouble. Known for being hot, single, and adventurous, Thomas must look like he's settling down with a woman in order to inherit the family business. And Abbie's the best candidate. So what's the solution? Fake dating! It's only an act, after all, and Abbie swears she will never fall for Thomas... Book Two: Despite her vows to stay single and independent, Abbie Tell finds herself getting more involved than ever in super billionaire Thomas Maxwell's fake dating ploy. With the family business on the line, Thomas has upped the game--and now Abbie is Thomas's fake fiancee. It's still just a business deal, according to Thomas. Only it's not. Abbie has feelings for Thomas and she's getting the sense that Thomas is taking this further for reasons other than business. That would be great, but now Abbie's best friend hates her and her father's counting on her to marry Thomas so he can get his hands on the Maxwell family fortune. Abbie can back out whenever she wants--but she and Thomas share something deep, something Abbie has never experienced with another man, and even her fear of settling down may be no match for him. Book Three: Abbie has just broken some surprising news to Thomas—they're expecting their first child. With their fake marriage only one month away and Thomas's inheritance to be decided soon, Abbie and Thomas now face the prospect of parenthood. While Abbie is fearful that a baby will take away her identity, she wants to keep their child. But Thomas harbors a secret and it just may rip the two of them apart. Can Abbie and Thomas's love for each other conquer everything that life has thrown at them? The Billionaire's Fake Dating Game Box Set is a bundle of three humorous, contemporary romance reads.

Nick Murphy has built his life on risks - but this one may cost him everything. Nick’s done a lot of stupid things in his life, but falling for Alexa Nash, the prosecutor assigned to investigate his business, takes the cake. When his curiosity about the accident that almost killed Alexa after high school leads to a cover-up by an influential Boston family, he finds himself neck-deep in an investigation that shines a spotlight on his business when he can least afford it — and a love affair he must keep secret even from his brothers. Alexa Nash lives for justice, but what happens when justice fails? Alexa had put the past behind her to focus on her career as a prosecutor. Then she fell hard and fast for Nick Murphy, a man who sees through her strength to the vulnerability she tries to hide, a man who sets her body and soul on fire. But when Nick’s investigation into her accident dredges up painful memories, Alexa is forced to accept that there can be no future with Nick until she reveals her most painful secret and determines whether he’s a legitimate entrepreneur or a ruthless vigilante. As the pair unravel the mystery of Alexa’s accident and the feelings they can’t deny, they begin to realize that in love, secrets can be deadly — and they are playing a very wicked game. ________________________ Praise for the Wicked Game series ★★★★★ "Romantic Suspense at its BEST!" ★★★★★ "This book is hot, steamy, and thrilling.

Download or read book The Amazing Illustrated Word Game Memory Books Volume 2 Set 2 written by Frank H. Gaertner and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-06 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Volume 2, Set 2 of the AIWGMB, is a continuation of a three-set series of stories and illustrations representing all of the 7-letter words captured by The Central Twenty-One Five-Letter Stems that feed into the Central Seven Six-Letter Stems of Volume 1, Set 1. Knowledge and flash, photographic-memory recall of these word lists, together with those of the Auxiliary Seven Six-Letter Stems of Volume 1, Set 2 can be valuable assets for any wannabe, top contender in our rapidly growing, competitive, word-game, social networks. The wordlists, organized in Mentafile(TM) format, are coded with peg-words assigned to each letter of the alphabet. This type of iconic coding-organization can make letter-management, and identification of 7-letter words within scrambled arrays, effortless, almost as though one has an app that automatically brings bonus-words to mind as one plays off letters "on-the-way" to one of the Central Seven Six-Letter Stems. For example, in a board game, where letters must be unscrambled to reveal hidden words, one might hold, in alphagram order, the following seven letters; ADNRSTU. For those accomplished with Vol. 2, Set 2 of the AIWGMB, the identification of the five-letter stem, RNAST, and the letter, D, within ADNRSTU, would be instantaneous, along with the mental search for the story and illustration of "She STRANDS the drunk on a TUNDRA'S plain." Alternatively, one might hold ADNRSST, which would immediately bring up the word STRANDS from that story. STANDER, the only other possibility for a 7-letter RNASTD word would show up with the holding of ADENRST, the only bonus word featured in the drunk file of RNEAST, one of the Central Seven Six-Letter Stems of Vol. 1, Set 1. Therefore, with no E, R or S in the hand, one skilled in the use of The AIWGMB would know, with valuable certainty, that no 7-letter bonus words were available for play. But the fun's not over. It really begins when we add to our search the thirty four, 8-letter RNASTD words of RNAST, RNEAST and INRAST. Having learned to "read" alphagrams from the flashcards connected to the stories and Illustrations of this series, we now watch our opponents shrink in terror as we unleash our knowledge and skill at finding and playing one of these 8-letter winners!
