The game has gotten kind of old to me, but I wanna support them any way I can. Any other things they make that I could buy?

[–] Soulphite@reddthat.com 99 points 3 days ago

If you want to support them any way you can just simply buy their shit regardless. You can gift it to people.

same, but played the family version for my kids and it was so much fun.

the youngest one needs to practice reading, and that game was a few hours of her reading and laughing as hard as she could

[–] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 26 points 3 days ago

This brings a smile to my face

[–] Salamanderwizard@lemmy.world 25 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Oh, hell yeah. Thank you for this idea. I've been wanting a fun way to teach my son to read. Thank you.

you have no idea how twisted/dark can kid's humour get

[–] Salamanderwizard@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

No no, I do. I have a very imaginative 5 yr old. He saw me play Helldivers once and wouldn't stop saying "sweet liberty my leg!" The looks I go in public.

They have many fine products on their all products page.

The "Don't talk to me until I've had my Clam-o-naise" mug is tempting me.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Oh a clam and mayo sandwich would fucking slap

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

I'm all about clam slappin

[–] night_petal@piefed.social 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I put mayo on my fried oyster sandwiches and I love it. I can imagine similar tastiness there. I might try it this weekend.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Ooh it's been too long since I've had a nice big plate of fried clams with a mayo based sauce

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago

Buy the SFW version and gift it to a school or library.

There are now tons of different expansions for CAH, like specific topic types and whatnot like sci-fi, nature, food, medicine.

I clicked over to their site on the worldwide web and they have a game called Contact. Seems like it's for nerds, so it'd be right up Lemmy's collective alley.

[–] Snapz@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Please don't reference our "collective alley" without the whole group's consent.

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Group's hole consent, got it.

[–] Snapz@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Left that one wide open for you
