Board or Digital?

These days everything gamewise is going digital. Do we really want another digital game or do we want a game where we can sit down and stab our friends in the back just when they think they are about to win?

So what would you rather do?

Tell us so we can help make this come true!!

League of Legends meets Munchkin in an all new game!

Have you ever sat down with your friends and wondered what you should do? You wanted a new game that would challenge you to find out who your real friends are? Then the game for you is under construction! My team of minions and my co-leader Austin are making a League of Legends Munchkin game. We have Just under two weeks to get a working prototype done. Join us for the ride?

Our game has to meet requirements like having an educational theme, a selected audience we want to solicit as well as figuring out our mechanics.

Educational themes: Magic, Interpersonal skills, Science, War (who really needs an educational theme when you can have the magiks??)
Mechanics: Strategy, RP, Board, Card and possibly Computer.
Audience Target: Everyone who likes our game :)

Questions we asked within our group:

  • Do we want to do a board game? Card game? Computer game?
  • Simple or a little more complex?
  • Could anyone be able to understand the game mechanics?
  • Do we want dice?
  • Do we want to make our own graphics?
  • Should we have altered stats?
  • Do we really want this game to be complicated?
  • Do we want to do a mash up of two games?
  • Are we going to have new rules?
Things we thought of while Brainstorming:

  • League of Legends
  • Munchkin
  • Pokemon
  • Magic
  • Sorry
  • Myst
  • Apple to Apples
  • Cards Against Humanity
  • Bacon
  • Food
  • Mountain Dew
  • Happiness
  • Art
  • Trying not to strangle the others in the group...
There will be a 30 second video pitch by the 30th.
