What We Played: Harry and the Hendersons (Coasters and Cocktails)

Players: Ben, Caroline, Marc, Lan (?), Pat, Andy

When and Where: Pat's place, Dec. 18

When the Hendersons find a Sasquatch on their road trip, they decide to bring him into their humble suburban abode. Father wants to sell the thing for fame and cash, Son is getting tired of sharing a room with his hairy friend, and Mom finally has the loving family she always wanted.

Everything comes to a crashing halt as a cop knocks on the door to respond to concerns about noise and streakers. The family tries to talk the cop away, but Sasquatch freaks out when the cop reaches for his precious pizza rolls (pepperoni on the inside!).

With a dead cop on the kitchen floor, the family flees to the woods to be reunited with Sasquatch's tribe. Over the years Sasquatch kills Dad, enslaves Mom, and becomes Sasquatch King with a herd of half-human progeny.

Son leaves the camp to become a bounty hunter, and at the grizzled age of thirty returns to have his revenge on the Sasquatch King. After blasting the king's brains out, the Son is brutally killed by a half-human, his own half-brother.

Excellent game! The whole thing took, maybe, 15 minutes? Conflict resolution was flipping coasters, heads up your outcome wins, with the ability to push coasters onto any resolution proposal. I thought it was a bit messy, coasters don't flip well and perhaps they could be easily manipulated...

You guys rock. That goes down in history as the hottest sasquatch-based party mini game evar.
