Pick a character, roll out the pallino, and prepare to play Virtual Bocce! The rules of this classic Italian game of lawn bowling are... well, you can pick them up as you play!

Whack-A-Caesar
 
Inspired by those wacky Roman Emperors who completely lost the plot as far as running a large empire is concerned, whether by murder, incest, delusions of immortality, making horses into senators, or having a morbid fascination with fungi culture. This game has no educational value whatsoever, but it might make you feel a bit better after a particularly bad day.
