Vision Vancouver unveils ”˜SamCity’ board game just in time for the holidays

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      It’s a sure sign that they have too much free time on their hands, but at least it’s an entertaining one.

      Vision Vancouver has released SamCity, a fictitious board game in which players "Keep their opponents down by the throat".

      One picture of the game depicts a giant Mayor Sam Sullivan wearing a crown and towering over a city overcome by garbage. A "sense of hopelessness" is included, another picture states.


      Fun for the whole family.

      Georgia Straight reporter Carlito Pablo obtained a copy of Vision's SamCity release at a press conference on Sunday (December 17).

      SamCity? Could they not have come up with another name then to try and make sales based on it sounding similar to SimCity? I don't know if i'd buy a game that has a similar name to a famous one knowing it's probably just a cheap version of the game or something trying to be t he next big game around. Like all the MMORPG's that have come out since WoW, no one is ever going to have millions of users like WoW so why try? I play wow for hours on end and when I get tired of that I go and play some <a target="_blank" href="http://www.play65.com">backgammon</a> to relax a bit before going back.

      It was a joke.
