Roshambomatic

Why play Rock Paper Scissors with your hands when you can do it with a machine? That’s the concept behind this game by builder Milan Sekiz, and it’s wonderful. It’s the simplest of games, but when determining who gets the front passenger seat (“shotgun”), who’s gets the last slice of pizza or who gets to change the diaper, there is no better method.

Rock Paper Scissors

It's one of the best ways to settle a dispute, requires no tools or additional game pieces, is easy to learn and impossible to master. It's rock, paper, scissors, or roshambo. For the truly nerdy among us though, things can be taken to the next level by adding Spock and lizard. And even more nerd cred goes to Takamichi Irie, for building it in LEGO (with the new half round tile even, spiffy).

UPDATE: Things got very nerdy, well played sir, well played.

Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock
