The title just feels right at the moment. Rules and board are below. If you show some interest in being one of my "blindtesters", please inform me about what game you are making via a PM on the forums so I can try it over the weekend (on saturday, to be more specific). This way everyone wins. Also, I have a few questions about the blindtest, which you´ll find below.
Components: For my previous sessions, 10 risk infantry and 4 sorry avatars were used per side, but you can also use pieces from a chessboard or any other game you own. You can also use different sized stones or even take a more symbolic approach and draw 10 Ps and 4 Ls of each color on pieces of paper
Rules: Rules are posted chronologically from oldest to newest, so the newes ruleset is at the bottom of the list. This was meant to show changes during development.
Board: ORGANICA board
Blind test questions.
Is the game fair to all participants? (i.e. no one has a clear advantage right?)
What are your thoughts on the lenght of the game? too short? too long?
What, in your opinion, makes the game so short/long/just right?
Were the rules clear to you? did you find any clear gaps that needed to be explained?
What do you think could be done to make learning how to play easier?
Was the size of the board ok? Would it adequately serve more than 2 players? please elaborate
What is the best aspect of the game?
What is the worst aspect of the game?
What game(s) does this remind you of?
Name one thing you would change or addto the game (other than the name, as we are focusing on finetuning gameplay)
I realize this is not very scientific, but I think it addresses my main concerns with the game. Feel free to use these questions for your own purposes.
I am adding a couple of links to pictures of the prototype, just to show what a finished game looks like.
