Welcome to Clever Games!
A little list of clever games, updated twice monthly. More coming soon!
Games
Spots
A game about dogs, dice, and pushing your luck. Battle other players to collect dice while risking your progress on every roll.
Games
Fuzzies
How it works: A little bit Jenga, a little bit Operation, a lot of weird dexterity fun. The game starts by cramming a buncha colorful poofballs into a mold that produces a tall tower. Taking turns, players remove and re-stack the fuzzies onto the tower. It's a simple

Games
Paper Apps: Dungeon
How it works: A paper-and-pencil dungeon crawler printed in a 3x5" inch memo pad. Create your character, roll the pencil dice, conquer the dungeon. Had a very sucessful Kickstarter run. Why it's clever: Each level is programmatically generated with Python and Drawbot, so each one is unique.
