Before I Kill You, Mr. Bond is a card game designed by James Ernest and marketed by his company, Cheapass Games. In BIKY, the players take the roles of supervillains in a spy movie, luring superspies (like "Mr. Bond") into elaborate traps and attempting to kill them by playing taunt cards. Other players can foil the taunts by playing another taunt with a letter that corresponds to the first taunt. If this happens, the superspy escapes and destroys the fortress of the player attempting to kill him.
In 2000, following a Cease and desist order from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, the game was taken out of print. It was reissued in 2004 as James Ernest's Totally Renamed Spy Game.
