Introducing the Keeper Award



When you think of all the fun that you can have getting to try out (we call it "Tasting") new games, for free... When you think of how much you can learn, and how interesting it can be to decide whether a game is actually and also truly Major Fun... award-worthily-speaking...  And how you get to help the people who make good games get the appreciation they deserve.... Well, you can see why people want to be part of one our Games Tastings.

On the other hand, this award-giving thing isn't that easy. And the Tastings aren't that fool-proof, or fool-worthy. Because some of the games that a lot of us thought were actually Major Fun, on first Tasting, turned out to be at least just as fun, in at least just as major a way, just about every time we played, with just about anyone we played with.

So major did these games prove to be that whenever we played them everyone would say something like: "this is the kind of game the Major Fun Award was meant for."

These games were at first a bit hard to classify, in so far as they already had a Major Fun award. And so the question was asked: what could be even majorer?

After long periods of reflection and verbal verisimilitude, we came upon the realization that these very games are exactly the kinds of games.you tend not to lend out, if you know what I mean. To anyone. Even a family member. Some you play maybe a couple times a week. Some maybe a couple times a year. But when the time comes around, the right people, the right moment, it's exactly and only the one game you want to play, These are the games one might call "keepers."

Hence, the Major Fun Keeper Award. Click on the link. Get to know what Major Fun really stands for.
