I had a really good time playing Elder Sign with some people that I had just met during that game. Since I had a big gap between games, we decided to fit in a fun, quick card game that they had brought along with them called Evil Baby Orphanage.
In the game, each player is running an orphanage for babies of evil individuals throughout history. You choose new babies and gain cards that help you to keep them under control, if you want to each turn. If not, they have special effects that will trigger. You need to reach a certain power rating of combined babies to win.
The babies are constantly moving around from orphanage to orphanage with the play of different cards and the special features of certain babies.
In the game, Sam got out to the quick lead with a number of high power babies. This made the rest of us gang up on him to steal his babies and move them around. Aaron and myself began to build up our baby power as Ann was a bit behind. However, she played a card that randomly placed all of the babies in orphanages and with some shrewd workings quickly came out on top.
It was a devious plan, which was all the better and she and her evil babies emerged victorious.
Final Thoughts:
This was a goofy fun little card game that leads to lots of laughs as new babies come out. The icon abilities are fun, but take a little bit to get used to.
I would play this one again in a minute. It was fun, light, and quick to play.
