So long as there are power outages, snowstorms, and an innate human thrill at the sound of thrown dice, board games will never go out of style. Today's side deal gets you a four-game gift pack of the best from Bucephalus for $49 (a $95 value). Pick up your games at the Bucephalus Seattle shop or have them shipped for an additional $25 charge.

The Bucephalus four-pack includes the psychoanalyst's pick of Rorschach, an ink-blot party game that lets you mess with your friend's heads as they try to peer into your own. For family adventures, there's the controlled embalmment of The Perfect Pyramid card and dice game. More strategic clans will prefer Kachina and Michelangelo, which plunges you into the cut-throat realm of the Renaissance art scene. Free of the over-the-top violence and rampant T&A of video games, Bucephalus tabletop games can fill the awkward conversational pauses between you and the child you're baby-sitting, you and your in-laws, or you and the neighbor who is baby-sitting your in-laws while you're playing a board game with your in-laws.

Delivery outside Seattle costs an additional $19 on top of regular delivery charges.

Rorschach won nominations from Seattle-Geekly.com for Best Children's, Family, and Party Games, and Critical-Hits.com writes:

• Bucephalus Games stormed onto the scene last year, quickly putting out a number of board game titles and having an impressive precense [sic] at both Origins and Gen Con. A quick look at their web page shows that some pretty big names are part of this new company too.

In regards to Rorschach, Critical-Hits.com calls it "Simple, elegant, and lots of fun to play."
