Does a dog have Buddha-nature? This is the most serious question of all. If you answer yes or no You lose your own Buddha-nature.

Zendo is a game of inductive logic in which the Master creates a rule and the Students attempt to discover it by building and studying arrangements of pyramids. The first student to correctly state the rule wins.

Zendo is now available as a complete boxed set from Looney Labs. The set contains 60 Icehouse pyramids in red, yellow, green, and blue, 60 glass stones, and a small deck of cards containing simple rules to start with. Zendo was also published in Playing with Pyramids, a book by Looney Labs containing rules and strategies for a dozen of the best games you can play with Icehouse pieces.
