YouTube of the Week: Let me tell you about my dire shark game Edition
Hey, this board game that the esteemed Tom Vasel reviews here sounds pretty good, and it’s about a shark the size of a person chasing and biting limbs. How’s that for a coincidence that this game would have a video review posted during Dire Shark Week?
TheGame is Dave Chalker, a lifelong gamer, freelance game designer, Master of Arts, and son of Jack L. Chalker. Dave is the Editor-in-Chief of Critical Hits and so runs the place. He is the envy of geeks everywhere because he's dating e, the Geek's Dream Girl. (Email Dave or follow him on Twitter).




Man, that does sound like a fun game…but whoever designed it has a stupid name…Chalker, pfft…what kind of name is that?…
;P

I think “Chalker” is Ancient Nordic for “Devastatingly Handsome.”
What idiot didn’t make the cards have numbers on both sides? And what faceless corporation managed to NOT include a shark in a shark game??
I actually played that a few weeks ago at the Salem Gamers Group. Fun game!
I like that it can be child friendly if you call the figures “robots”, but honestly I’ve never thought of them as anything other than people. Now that I think about it, I should have suggested calling the game “Robots vs. Shark”, though Get Bit has proven to be a very accurate name as I can explain how to play the game without saying the title several times…
My son loves it and we do call them robots!
