I didn't know what to think when I got this. 5 bucks wasn't much to pay for this, but the price could mean any number of things. The cards were pretty simple, black and white, and the rules were printed on a folded sheet of paper.
Apparently I was going to get to start a Rock and Roll band. Excellent!
I read the rules. They're easy: you recruit band members, give them instruments to play, and try to make your band famous before the other players do the same for theirs. Easy, did I say? Deceptively simple, really.
At one point, I had in my band: a gorilla, who played the accordian, and had found Jesus; a former mariachi player named Renaldo, who ended up playing a saxophone, and had caught a diease from his legions of groupies; a longhaired Gen-X slacker with the moniker of "Pezzz", who wasn't particularly skilled, but still liked to do long solos on the microphone; and my Mom, who had taken up devil worship while I wasn't looking. The people loved us, and we won their respect in many a gig. Everything was going great until Pezzz, the little weasel, got a new girlfriend and decided to bring her on tour. Wow... shades of Yoko Ono, even. The rest of the band left in disgust. I lost to an even stranger band. Even though I conned their record company into believing one of their songs was back-masked and was summoning demons, my little cadre never recovered from Pezzz's vile deeds.
The whole game plays like that. Always. It's not a game you play to win, but a game you play for the sake of playing.
The art is, of course, all in black and white. It's quite good, but a bit of color might have helped. That's really my only complaint; the game plays smoothly, the rules are clear, and it's a heck of a lot of fun. There's a lot of replay value in this one.
Definitely worth my 5 bucks :)
