THE GAME OF INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMACY
Axe In My Head at Facebook
GENEVA, 1920.
For King and Country
It is the first meeting of the League of Nations, and the Swiss are so proud of hosting this august body, that they invite their champion axe-juggling troupe to entertain the assembled delegates.

Unfortunately, halfway through the demonstration, the troupe goes insane, and begins pitching hatchets into the audience. Players take the roles of the Great Powers, who use the confusion to conduct international business amidst the chaos, and generally try to shift the balance of world power while escaping a bunch of armed psychopaths.



Oh My God! There’s an Axe In My Head is a boardgame of intrigue and mayhem for 3 to 6 players. In our latest set of rules, play time is about 60 minutes or less.



News for September 2011!

THIS PROJECT WILL BE FUNDED ON MONDAY SEP 12, 1:00am EDT.

If you don't see that green badge when you visit the Kickstarter page, you're doing it wrong.
Early on Tuesday, the Oh My God! There’s An Axe In My Head Kickstarter campaign reached its primary goal. We have less than ten days before the end of the campaign, so if you want to be one of the first to have this long-awaited game, you only have until the time specified.

Hugundous thanks to all our pledgers!!

News for August 2011! KICKSTARTER!

Yes, our Kickstarter campaign has begun. In little more than 40 days from now, we expect to turn the wheels of production on this long-awaited game. Dozens, maybe hundreds of people have played Oh My God! There’s An Axe In My Head over the last seven years, and have asked again and again, “Where can I buy it?”

Well, Dave Fooden has put it together at last in a Kickstarter program. Click here and place your pledge–at this writing, we’re off to a great start, and we don’t want any of our longtime fans to miss out!

AND! Kickstarter has featured us on their weekly blog! “New Projects Are An Axe In Our Heads (In A Good Way):

The artwork looks a lot like what would happen if John Kovalic and Winsor McCay made an art baby, which is to say it looks really cool.

Whoa! Now that makes me want to kick back and play half a game of Munchkin while Burne Hogarth cleans half my brushes! I am abashed, and very honored by your words, Cindy A. of Kickstarter project. We will see to that Oh My God! There’s An Axe In My Head will be worthy of those names.
