Thoughts on “Bang”
The premise of Bang is a spaghetti western movie, which is a wild west themed movie produced in Italy or by Italian filmmakers. In this regard, the game manages to capture the spirit fairly well. Every card is written in Italian as well as English, and they are themed after old western films.
In “Bang,” Each player has a different role to play, and a different way to win. There is a sheriff, some deputies, outlaws, and one renegade. The sheriff wants to maintain order, so he and the deputies win if the outlaws are all killed. The outlaws want no law, so they win if the sheriff is killed. The renegade wants to be the new sheriff, so he wins if he is the last one standing when the sheriff dies. You kill other players by shooting them. This is accomplished by playing a “Bang” card on your turn aimed at them. Every gun only does 1 damage, but different guns have different ranges. The winchester rifle, for example, has a range of 5, meaning it can hit a player 5 spaces to the left or right of the user. When a player is out of lives, they die. There are also cards that can cause damage to one or more players, give them items, heal them, and more. All in all, I think Bang is a simple game with a lot of depth to it.

the idea of rolling dice is intriguing to me. I developed a game idea similar to your Diced Up game idea. Im interested in what you mean by the winner is decided when there are no more die left in the pool? would there be a certain amount of dice in the ‘pool’?
Dice Game Feedback:
What was frustrating: The being being entirely luck based can be frustrating at moments, but I wouldn’t say that’s necessarily a bad thing.
Favorite Moment: Being able to take a chance and roll a second dice made it more interesting and suspenseful.
What else did I wan to do: Being able to roll more than just one extra die could have been fun and added more fun/exciting moments.
What would I change if Possible: I was content with everything I was able to do, quick and simple.
Would I play again: Yes, it was a quick and fun game I could see myself playing with friends.
the idea of Stockpile is interesting as I can assumes that the stockpile is a stockpile of weapons. want to know is if you are working to get rid of the nuclear weapons or getting more and getting rid of other weapons.
