Testimonial of the Week
-----------------------

"Aquarius is possibly the most international card game ever. Nearly everyone I've broken it out for has liked it, and I'm always trying to hook more people on it. My host family in Sukhbaatar all really loved it, and so do my new co workers. With my family back in Sukhbaatar, I even cut out little strips of paper, and translated the few English words there are into Mongolian, and now everybody can play really easily once I explain the rules -- as best I can in my limited Mongolian, mostly with miming. It made me think that it would be really awesome if the Looney Labs could write the English text and rules in other languages, so that if they get a hold of the deck, they can look it up on the internet and be able to play right away. In fact, I think I'm going to look into getting packs of Aquarius to give away to people here -- my parents are sending regular packages, you know. I don't have the pack with me right now, so I can remember the Mongolian text, but I'll write for you later. I've also got some cool pics of Mongolians playing Aquarius, even a tough herder guy in a traditional outfit from last weekend! Anyways I just wanted to convey that, and to make sure everyone knew that even Mongolians love Aquarius." -- Ian Hartman, of the Peace Corps, emailing from Mandalgovi, Mongolia
