it was competitive to get coins, but very collaborative with the trading to give people what they need while getting what you need.

game ideas about slimes

slime war—-

the slimes are at war, and your a leader of one of the slime armies, pick up and place cards to build your army and start battles with the other waring armies. may the best slime win.

setup- 112 cads in total, max of 4 players

each player has a health pool, they start with 30 tokens in their pool. the remaining tokens can go back in the box.

each player gets a starting amount of 6 cards from the draw pile.

during your turn you can either place cards or attack( not both)

the last person with tokens left in their pool wins.

placing turn

during your turn you will be able to place cards Infront of you, you have 6 available spots to place these cards.

if you don’t like your hand you are allowed to swap a max of three of your cards, you will place each card in the discard pile and pick up one new card for each one you discard.

your cards are a mixture of different kinds of slimes : plant, fire, , poison, earth, water.

their are 3 tiers of slimes, the first tier costs nothing to place, the second tier requires 2 tier one cards of the same type to be sacrificed off the board to place, the third tier requires 2 second tier cards to be sacrificed off the board.

example of above description

when a card is sacrificed it goes into the discard pile ( optional advanced option for 2 players: when cards are sacrificed they are put into a graveyard pile and can not be used for the rest of the game.)

you can also only have one of each slime on the board, that means if you have a dragon slime on the board you cant put another one down.

attacking turn

each slime has an ability, that ability can either be attack, defense, or healing.

attack— each of these slimes will damage your opponent

when playing with more than 2 players you are able to choose who you attack during your attack turn

tier 1 (8) –2 point of damage

tier 2 (4) — 3 points of damage

tier 3 (2) — 5 points of damage

defense— each slime will defend agents damage being inflicted on you

tier 1 (4) — 1 point of damage

tier2 (2) — 2 points of damage

tier 3 (1) — 4 points of damage

some attacks and defenses will leave your opponent with an effect that lasts a few turns, the effect is described on the card that inflicts it.

tier 1 — docent have effects

tier 2 — effects last for the next 2 turns

tier 3 — effect lasts for the next 3 turns

healing— pretty self explanatory, gives you back some health points.

tier 1 (4) — 1 point of damage

tier 2 (2) — 2 points of damage

tier 3 (1) — 3 points of damage

health pool

the health pool is full of 30 tokens at the beginning of the game. when ever you are attacked you take out the respective amount of tokens to damage taken, these are then put into the collective void.

during an attack turn you can only use your healing slimes if their are tokens in the void

the point of the health pool is have how much health your opponents have be a mystery( hopefully minimizing group targeting and allowing for a more suspenseful game with an unknown outcome.)

gooey grotto

you are an adventurer trying to get through this dungeon before the other adventurers can. each player has specific moves and abilities that can help them through the grotto, they roll dice to move through the grotto and can land on spaces that let them pick up cards to boost their abilities or give them extra abelites with a one time use. you can also set traps for other adventurers to stumble into and make them loose a turn. every turn you encounter a slime and have to roll your other die to see if you defeat that slime with your abilities, if you lose you can not roll to move and have to fight that slime every turn until you defeat it.

dungeon raid

you are a slime in the dungeons and have to defend your self from adventurers doing raids on your dungeon, this is also a cooperative game where all players work together to defeat the adventurers. each turn you pick up cards and use them to enhance your slime for battle. after each round an adventurer appears and you each take turns to deal damage to the adventurer. when the adventurer attacks you roll a dice to see if he hits or not and you all lose a point of health, with each of you being a slime you each only have 5 health points. you go until you defeat all the adventurers, their are only 7 adventurers each one harder than the last.

slime hop

slimes race to get to the end of the board by rolling dice and hopping that many spaces, some spaces have different events on them like teleporting, swapping places, going back spaces, or skipping a turn, or rolling again.

goo slime

its just go fish but with slimes, but you have to try and get a match of all 5 types of slimes.

citadel review

Was it fun?

yes the game was very fun, and the instructions were very straight forward.

What were the players’ interactions?

their was a lot of sabotage, every decision you made about what character you picked limited the choices of others. the assassin, thief, and warlord cards made it really fun because we started to know who had what card so it was more fun to kill or steal.

Would you play it again?

yes i would love to play, it is one of the few stratagem games that i really seem to enjoy. their were also a lot of cards that we didn’t end up using.

How long did it take to learn?

it was almost an immediate knowing of how to play after i read the rules, but over all i think the group took about 10 minutes.

Analyze the game using the 3-act structure.

their wasn’t much learning curve to the game to so the second act was most prevalent in this game, and the 3rd act was a very brief one because it may seem like one person was winning but then their can be so many curve balls thrown in with order of choice changed and with no clear circle of who plays next it was a very you don’t know until thieve already one type of feeling.

What is the collaborative and or competitive aspects of the game?

the competitive aspects of the game were very clear, with the king their was a competition for who gets to go first, and knowing that the game could change during every turn it made it even more a me against them than a bide your time type of game.

What is the game’s metaphor and which of the game’s mechanics standout?

very single card having its own mechanic made the game so fun, my 3 favorites were the warlord that can destroy anyone’s buildings, the architect because you can build up to 3 buildings instead of one, and the merchant because of all the mone you can get.

the tile game( i forget the name)

Was it fun?

it was very simple and fun.

What were the players’ interactions?

their weren’t direct interactions but any tile you could place could lead to someone getting eliminated.

Would you play it again?

yes but i don’t think it has the play multiple rounds at once because it is almost the exact same every time.

How long did it take to learn?

the wording was a little weird but it was a pretty straight forward game, about 10 15 minutes.

Analyze the game using the 3-act structure.

their was never really a third act to the game, because their were so many lines on the board it was hard to tell if someone would get eliminated by their play, most of the time was spent in the second act.

What is the collaborative and or competitive aspects of the game?

the competitive is the fact if your close to someone you can force them out if you play your tiles wright.

What is the game’s metaphor and which of the game’s mechanics standout?

none of the mechanics stand out to me, the only one that i think is cool is the fact you have to go to the end of a line and if someone else places them down you have to move too.

thoughts on the fire work game

Was it fun?

yes

What were the players’ interactions?

it was very interaction involve because the whole game relied on us giving hint to each other about our cards.

Would you play it again?

i would play it again

How long did it take to learn?

it only took about 20 maybe less to learn.

What is the collaborative and or competitive aspects of the game?

the collaborative aspect is working together to make the free works, if someone were to sabotage someone by telling them different cards then it would just hurt everyone including themselves from winning.

What is the game’s metaphor and which of the game’s mechanics standout?

the mechanics of the rainbow cards being able to be used as either a whole other fire work to build or being able to be used as wild cards is a very fun and unique mechanic. i also loved the fact that you cant see your own cards, forcing you to trust the other players.
