Article has existed for over a decade and has attracted no references at all so far. Google News turned up only one inadequate hit, Google Books showed nothing relevant for this topic. No awards won, no evidence of subject-specific notability. Maybe it is time to let this one go as not notable? A loose noose (talk) 04:47, 21 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment:There are external links. Maybe that could be used as citations?--Boothsift (talk) 06:43, 21 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- There are three external links. Unfortunately, two of them lack independence from the subject, and the third is simply a description of the game from a website that covers all board games (i.e., WP:ROUTINE coverage, not special coverage, not enough, I don't think, to qualify for notability). If this game were notable, it should be written up in some books or newspapers somewhere. Its mere existence does not by itself make it notable.

Merge (with appropriate trimming) to Icehouse pieces. This is a major instance of a game played with said pieces, but is only relevant in the context of the prices themselves (which are independently Notable). Newimpartial (talk) 11:05, 21 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge to Looney Labs. BOZ (talk) 13:31, 21 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per Newimpartial. --Izno (talk) 14:03, 21 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
A merge seems fine to me. I withdraw the deletion nomination, and will perform the merge myself, if that is alright with everyone. A loose noose (talk) 14:47, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good, but I really think the merge target should be Icehouse pieces and not Looney labs. I am generally loathe to merge games to companies where other appropriate targets exists. Newimpartial (talk) 15:04, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to "Icehouse pieces" whatever text merits space in Wikipedia. -The Gnome (talk) 10:43, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
