Happy Memorial Day weekend to all our fans in the USA!
In other news....about one week left before the Dog Walker Board Game is finalized. We still need 10 more dog pictures (ideally 7 girls and 3 boys) for the walkable cards. This is a great way to immortalize your beloved pet!
Could use some action and/or fun and/or whimsical dog pics for the action cards (in particular one that could depict "Burr in Fur").
Send pictures to info @ CheekyDingo . com (remove the spaces) and include the dog's name, breed, gender and who took the photo.

Our most exctiing announcement to date!
Cheeky Dingo Games is proud, nay honored, to announce that we are producing the official ElfQuest® Adventure Game. This year marks the 35th anniversary of the first publication of the seminal fantasy series that spear-headed the independant comic market in the late 70's.
Game designer Layman Kingsford thought this a propicious time to bring forth unto the fans a new and amazing way to experience the World of Two Moons. (He is secretly wetting his pants a little bit every time he realizes he is getting to work with the Pinis and the World of Two Moons).
So click on the image above for more details about this exciting project and how you can follow and participate in its creation.

We stayed up half the night hashing out a concept for a new Malazan game using cards and polyhedral dice. The dice rules are based on our unique dice mechanic system and will make all the adventure, war, magic and tragedy of Steven Erikson's and Ian Esselmont's fantasy world come alive.
It will be playable by 1-4 people meaning it's a cooperative game, though there may be ways to make it contentious as well.

We got word last night that the HouseBoy app was rejected by Apple. It appears they want it to be listed for ages 17+ due to "frequent" adult references as opposed to the "infrequent" category that we had listed it in.
Folks, this is a dice game where two-thirds of the dice actions are doing cleaning and fixing chores and one-third is "hookups". How does that math add up to "Frequent"?
We resubmitted it with the 17+ rating. Hopefully that fixes Apple's disapproval, though now we likely have to wait another week.
Wed. May 30, 2012
The free version of the HouseBoy iPhone app was submitted to Apple today. So, hopefully within a week or so it should be available on iTunes!

Fine, fine, fine. We would never want to leave the orchestra folk wanting. We'll make this game too.
Mon. Apr. 2, 2012
Had a smashing idea for a series of smart phone app games: BAND GEEK!
You'll get to recruit members for your ensemble (band, orchestra or choir), make sure they rehearse (practice, practice, practice) and then audition against other player's ensembles for the gigs that pay in XP (experience points).
We may even be able to make it so that you and other friends can share ensemble members or sections to form the ultimate performance groups!
You'll get to arrange the music for your group, if you so desire, and actually listen to your version! Perform the classics as well as new and original compositions.
Stay tuned for more details!
