Description
Reuben "Rube" Goldberg was an American cartoonist, sculptor, author, engineer, and inventor, remembered today for his cartoons depicting needlessly elaborate contraptions that perform simple tasks. These intricate collections of springs, pulleys, marbles, and countless other components are at once pointless and fascinating, silly and inspiring. Summon your inner Rube Goldberg to help you score points in a 2-player, 9-card game that challenges you to make amazingly point-filled but still pointless, machines. Released in the March 2020 Board Game of the Month Club $10+ package.
