For years, Buttchess has been a name synonymous with strategy, cunning, and, well…cheeky fun. Our game has captured the hearts (and seats) of countless players, revolutionizing the tabletop experience one tactical move at a time.

But today, we have a groundbreaking announcement. After careful consideration, countless focus groups, and a heated debate over several rounds of play, we’ve decided to rebrand Buttchess to… Bumdrafts!
Why the change? Let’s break it down.
1. A More Refined, Sophisticated Name
"Buttchess" is bold. It’s brash. It makes you chuckle every time you say it. Butt we felt the need to elevate our brand, to introduce a title that oozes class and sophistication. Bumdrafts brings to mind the strategic elegance of drafting your next move while keeping the lighthearted spirit of the game intact.
2. International Accessibility
Did you know that in some countries, "Buttchess" translates to something entirely different? In certain dialects, it means "battle of the iron seats," while in others, it's mistaken for an avant-garde furniture brand. Bumdrafts is universally recognizable and easier to translate across languages.
3. Streamlining Our Marketing Strategy
Our team has tirelessly worked on promotional material, and after several internal tests, one thing became clear: Bumdrafts just looks better on a billboard. Imagine the tagline:
"Think fast. Sit firm. Play Bumdrafts."
4. A Natural Evolution
Chess evolved into Buttchess. Now, Buttchess is evolving into Bumdrafts. It’s the next logical step in tabletop gaming history. Who knows what’s next? GluteTactics? BootyCheckers? Posterior Positioning? The possibilities are endless.
5. Okay, Fine, It’s April Fools’
Yes, this is our official April Fools’ Day prank, but hear us out—Bumdrafts has a certain… charm, doesn’t it?
As always play strategically, sit comfortably, and draft your next move wisely.
Happy April Fools’ Day from the Bumdrafts (or Buttchess) team!
