While looking over the offerings on Regai's Junk Math Trade list, I was struck with horror at the disembodied horse heads pictured for one of the games. This got me thinking about all the other potential nightmare fodder lurking in game boxes.

I'm not talking about game bits that are simply unattractive, or of substandard quality, or vaguely annoying. What games have bits that give you such a wiggins that you fear to see them when you close your eyes?

Edit: Please feel free to add pictures of any game components -- cards, images on the board, etc.

The inspiration for this list. Had the bits designer never seen the Godfather? Or are these bits some kind of creepy homage?

Not only that, but they don't appear to be uniform in their depiction. While the brown one is clearly meant to represent a detached "bust" of a horse, the two on the left just kind of melt down into the base like a quickly-sketched Lovecraftian image.

It determines movement and storms (which fits reasonably well thematically; one can imagine headwinds or tailwinds impacting speed, and storms stopping progress). It's actually rather clever, because it's a randomization device that can easily be tuned for the number of players.

Interestingly, the game rules state that any roll where the pigs end up touching causes the player's score to be immediately zeroed, as such is an "undignified position" for pigs.

Have you ever had that dream where an extremely large Bob's Big Boy mascot animates, and, to everyone's horror, starts swinging at things with a baseball bat? Note the freaky look in his eyes as he towers over the children below. I believe that thing hanging out of his mouth is a kid with a red shoe trying desperately to escape.

It's just like that time on The Simpsons when Homer made the Lard Lad come to life!

The oddest thing to me is that this game has a higher (unadjusted) rating than A Game of Thrones!

while i agree that that card is kinda freaky looking, i believe that card is actually intended for some other game (like, a free mini-mini-expansion you get for free, if you buy coloretto...)... i don't remember which game, but i think it's mentioned in the rules with Coloretto

I think another Geek may have come up with the name, but that's what I've called it since I bought the game.

One of our house rules is that if Chompy Castle is drawn, he chomps (discards) one card from any unclaimed row. (If no cards are available, he goes hungry.)

Now THAT'S just a public service. Children should be taught early and reminded often about the evil of clowns.

Regarding the game box art, the funniest comment I ever read was where someone suggested that the kid on the left had just 'slimed' his pants. Seems pretty darned happy about it, too. I guess you always DO remember your first time...

It's also "The zaniest marble-gobbling game ever." I guess that game where we saw who could swallow the most marbles followed by a trip to the emergency room just wasn't zany enough.

Here's a little clown story:

Our local Little League held its Opening Day ceremonies where they have a cookout, parade, raffle etc. The highlight for the kids is to have the announcer say their name when they run out onto the field.

This year someone had the idea of hiring a Clown to make it even more festive.

The Clown stood at the gate to the field and when the announcer said the kid's name, he or she had to run by the clown and give him a high five to get onto the field.

I wish I had a picture of the line of kids waiting to go onto the field--I'll never forget the look of fear and dread when they realized they'd have to pass by that clown.
