BUT is it a Sandwich? is a Party-style game that leans into people's aptitude for being a bit pedantic. Specifically BUT is it a Sandwich? has a player describe how a Thing may fit into a Category, and using that logic, other players need to see if they can fit the Things in their hand into the Category. It is a silly game that allows people to place logic on illogical concepts - for example, a Deodorant is a Sandwich because it is sandwiched between the cap and case. As silly as this may sound, the argument is that if something is sandwiched between 2 things, it is a Sandwich - so with that logic, what ELSE is a Sandwich?
We are launching a Kickstarter to allow people to opt in to purchase a game for themselves. We will have a few different options depending on your wants or needs.
But is it a Sandwich? will be about $35 CAD before tax and shipping. If you choose to opt for 2 or 3 games, we will reduce the cost of the game as more are purchased. This price is based on the printing and shipping from Shenghi to Canada, where we will process and ship out to each person.
No. Since people from all over the world can purchase this game, we are unsure of what to charge for each shipment. We will be looking to reduce costs as much as possible.
Things are physical things that exist. Think of something that can be held or touched, like a sandwich, a phone or a paintbrush
Categories are groupings or a concepts. For example, a Toy can be a grouping of many things and Art, being entirely subjective, lends well to being a concept.
BIIAS is the abbreviated version of But is it a Sandwich? We felt that it being "Bias" with an extra letter is very fitting.
The Pedant is the term used for "Active Player". It isexpected that the person defining who is arguing a Thing is within a Category is going to be Pedandtic as they excessively concerned with minor details and rules or with displaying academic learning.
