Just so you know, there is an RPG system called Dread that uses a Jenga tower instead of dice. The theory being that as the game goes on the skill checks get harder and harder, and the monsters harder to kill. It is fun.

2019-10-10 01:03:02 +0000 UTCJust noticed that Yay has human-style speech balloons instead of AI-style balloons. Huh.

2019-10-09 17:00:59 +0000 UTCThe most important question, which I have not seen asked is: "What happens when you launch a grenade?"

2019-10-09 16:43:47 +0000 UTCThe five-dimensional grid makes the game interesting.

2019-10-09 15:50:20 +0000 UTCIt's a shame they don't realize that all they have to do is use the Calvinball for an automatic victory...

2019-10-09 14:35:50 +0000 UTCThat missing block! Where did it go! Spooky AI!
2019-10-09 14:21:24 +0000 UTCI also would launch a grenade :D

2019-10-09 14:05:36 +0000 UTCHow dare you think that of our sweet special child Melon. Bless her heart lol.
2019-10-09 13:38:47 +0000 UTCI demand to know the full ruleset
Da Nargh!!
2019-10-09 10:16:02 +0000 UTCTo be fair, everyone seems to get along quite well w/ Melon. Even when she randomly just appears in your apartment, everyone just accepts the fact that she is just a friendly, harmless, AI.

2019-10-09 06:50:58 +0000 UTCMove block to top. "Do you (random activity) or launch a grenade?"

2019-10-09 05:53:54 +0000 UTCBold of to to assume Jeph knows how many blocks are in a Jenga tower
BeatButton
2019-10-09 04:37:06 +0000 UTCSo how much a month for the full game?
Taylor Kendall
2019-10-09 03:58:25 +0000 UTCD & J! Been many years since Iβve been that wasted ...
Bill Hall
2019-10-09 03:40:20 +0000 UTCYeah, I'm still convinced she is the mastermind that created and controls the Spookybot network from the shadows and takes some kind of perverse pleasure in their new "personal" interactions, with the Spookybots being absolutely clueless about it all.
Bastinenz
2019-10-09 03:33:19 +0000 UTCI also like how block "32" is clearly counted in a quasi-ternary system. (First digit is level starting with 1, second digit is 0, 1, or 2 depending on position in the level.) Or possibly the counting is decimal but just starts at 11. Either way, since there are only 30 blocks, it's not just counting starting at 1. But both of the above systems match the missing blocks, so. As does the variant of the first that starts the level at 0 and has the blocks as 1, 2, or 3. Clever Jeph is clever.

2019-10-09 03:05:54 +0000 UTCI WANT THE FULL RULESET!
Joseph Bonnar
2019-10-09 03:03:41 +0000 UTCGI Jenga
Summer Sudbrink
2019-10-09 03:02:52 +0000 UTCSounds like fun!
Bagge
2019-10-09 03:00:25 +0000 UTCWell yeah, it's just had a grenade thrown at it. :P
Sam Johnson
2019-10-09 02:57:48 +0000 UTCThe block Yay just placed disappeared between panels 2 and 3 π
2019-10-09 02:45:43 +0000 UTCIβm pretty sure thatβs in the Northern Ireland rule set.

2019-10-09 02:11:15 +0000 UTCYay seems to get on with Melon extremely well. Probably find the eccentricity of Melon to be amusing.
Thisguy
2019-10-09 02:00:39 +0000 UTCI was fully prepared for the third panel being Spookybot going into the psychological warfare of regularJenga, and was pleasantly surprised by the Calvinball twist!

2019-10-09 01:57:56 +0000 UTCEveryone go home, the game has been named.

2019-10-09 01:54:14 +0000 UTCShe's not weird. She's Melon!
Joel Bateman
2019-10-09 01:46:36 +0000 UTCoh cool; they're playing CalvinBlock.
Peter McDevitt
2019-10-09 01:46:10 +0000 UTCI love how Yay just takes Melon in stride. She's not weird. She's not wrong. She's just different. (OK, to be fair, Melon <i><b>is</b></i> weird, but she's <i>my</i> kind of weird.) Who cares if she's making it up as she goes? It's fun! And when you think about it, weren't all games made up as they went?
awgiedawgie
2019-10-09 01:46:03 +0000 UTCI still stand by my theory that Melon is a super genius. But that's just a theory...a GAME...

2019-10-09 01:41:14 +0000 UTCFireball is always the correct spell for the situation.
Ting
2019-10-09 01:39:47 +0000 UTCI'm finally recognizing Melon is not dumb, she's like Emily- a very specialized savant!
jimbo
2019-10-09 01:39:23 +0000 UTCI also choose to launch a grenade!
2019-10-09 01:38:54 +0000 UTCReminds me of that classic game Dark Tower.
Shawn K. Younkin
2019-10-09 01:34:36 +0000 UTCRight? That said, I'm so in on this concept.
Jonathan Marinaro
2019-10-09 01:33:29 +0000 UTCMornington Crescent would be much more interesting with grenade launchers, too.
Noise
2019-10-09 01:33:11 +0000 UTCSounds like a fantasy version of the game Dread
Sam J
2019-10-09 01:31:06 +0000 UTCI noticed that too. Maybe because they're speaking for their character who is just one person?
JD
2019-10-09 01:30:57 +0000 UTCSpookybot is a chill entity. Also, is this the first time they've used a first person singular pronoun?
