Dice Games. Card Games. Boardgaming Websites. Going Cardboard - A Board Game Documentary by Lorien Green. THANK YOU, Going Cardboard Backers! We've hit the funding goal! With just a smidge to spare. ;) Donations above and beyond are welcome of course, and will be put to good use both for film costs and for extra niceties for our backers. Keep spreading the good word! In an era of tech-based, plugged-in entertainment, board games are making a comeback. But this is not your Grandma's Scrabble we're talking about! For this film, I traveled to various board gaming events including the SPIEL fair in Essen, Germany, home of the Spiel des Jahres (Game of the Year) award. I'm also thrilled to say that the DVD packaging will include a new designer board game from famed designer Reiner Knizia! For a full overview of the film and the hobby, including a brand new teaser clip, see my Hustream interactive presentation (this requires an HTML5-enabled browser, i.e., NOT IE 8): STATUS Post-production is nearing completion on this film.

So strap on your chaps and mosey up to the roof. Deadwood is a fast-paced board game about actors, acting, and the thrill-filled life of a wandering bit player. Players begin as lowly bit actors, and spend their days roaming the Deadwood backlot in search of acting jobs.
