Keep Playing


Keep Playing
by Will Conway

A7 zine fold from A4. Coloured print. 

£1.50



Do you remember the advert for that awful board game called The Game of Life?

"Be a winner at the game of life, 
 Get a job - have money maybe
 Get married - have a baby..."
(You can find the advert on YouTube)

If anyone is compiling a Top 5 Pieces of Propaganda list, that game has to make it in surely. 

Thankfully, Will Conway has corrected the board game mechanism for real life, the result is the pocket sized satire Keep Playing. I can't say too much more without revealing the content, except to say it's funny and nicely produced - complete with hand drawn illustrations. A perfect zine to gift to fellow struggling game of lifers. 

You can pick up a copy on Etsy: etsy.com/uk/listing/607352139/keep-playing-a-board-game-booklet-will

While you are there check out Will's other pocket money priced zines, more of Will's work is reviewed here.
