Ep 57- We are in Fluxx with Looney Labs

Ep 57- We are in Fluxx with Looney Labs

One of Shayna's favorite games to play in therapy is a card game called, FLUXX. It is a unique and fun game with ever changing rules. And what makes it even better is that there are many different versions, so anyone can find a version they love! In this episode, Shayna and Kathy interviewed the creators of FLUXX, Andy and Kristin Looney. Learn more about them, their games, how they can be used in therapy, and how they are just plain fun to play for everyone.

Looney Labs was founded in 1996 by two former NASA engineers named Looney. The husband and wife team have been creating fun ever since, with Andy inventing the games, and Kristin running the company. Along with the help of four other full-time employees, several part-timers, and an army of fans, the Looneys are changing the way you play! Their most popular game is FLUXX, and other hit games include Loonacy, Chrononauts, Just Desserts, Get the MacGuffin, Aquarius, TimeBreaker, and Pyramid Arcade. If you can beat Andy at his favorite game, Homeworlds, he will give you a medal. Just released: WORD FLUXX and MYSTERY FLUXX -- What's coming next?  CAT FLUXX
