What is Fluxx about?
|
This card game Fluxx were made by Andrew Looney and publish by Looney Labs. It is a card game with a special designed deck, where the players make up the rules and goals as it goes on. Many, many different versions of this game exits and I have played a couple of them. However when I started to write my analysis of Fluxx 4.0 I ask myself, what is this game about? The keeper cards have the most basic things on them to the cosmos, the rules are easy to complex and the actions are simple to odd.
I cannot find a red line going through this game. The other games at least has a theme to it, while this… this is just a black hole of stuff. The game just exist… and I can´t see the reason why it does. The game does has a game flow to it(even if it is odd), so the game is maybe referring its name? Everything must have a thought to it, even this game surely must has one. However I cannot see the what Fluxx 4.0 is about. Is this game really about nothing and randomness? Or is there a deeper meaning that I am missing? Nest invader in the sky |
