Kheper Games - Fantasy Affairs, board and 176 cards
Kheper Games - Fantasy Affairs, board and 176 cards
176 cards across three decks, 36 of them devoted to ways of kissing: Fantasy Affairs is the only game in the lot to give a whole deck to a single gesture. Add a 17-inch board, 10 tokens, two markers and a die. One point needs attention: the product name states a Spanish and French version, while the manufacturer's description states rules in English and Spanish.
Why choose this model?
- 176 cards in three decks: 36 scenarios, 36 kisses, 104 Heart cards.
- A whole deck on kissing, which no other game in the lot offers.
- 17-inch board, about 43 cm, with ten tokens and two markers.
- 490 g: between the Bondage kit's 358 g and A Lifetime of Sex's 872 g.
- Language to check: the name and the manufacturer's description disagree.
How to play it
- Check the language of the rules as you open the box, before setting anything up.
- Count the three decks: 36, 36 and 104 cards.
- Agree a stop word before the first scenario card.
- Go through the cards together and set aside the scenarios that do not suit.
- Alternate the decks rather than exhausting the scenarios first.
The game A Lifetime of Sex rises to 258 cards with French confirmed, and The Arts of Insanity is played in teams. See also positive sexuality and starting BDSM safely.
Care and precautions
Check the language of the copy you receive before the first game: the manufacturer makes several editions and the sheet does not say which one leaves the warehouse. Count the cards and the pieces as you open the box, since an incomplete game is easier to report on day one than three weeks later. Store it flat, away from damp, cards put back in their compartment. On play: a card may be refused without having to explain, a stop word agreed before starting applies to the whole game, and alcohol in quantity has no place at this table. Nobody plays a card on someone else's behalf.
