Board Game:
Struggle in Reality
I've always wanted to create something by myself, from the very beginning to the end ---- so I made this game!
Inspired by Monopoly, each player will get a character card at the beginning of the game with different abilities. There will be random "Chance" and "Destiny" cards on the map with various kinds of events that can possibly happen in life ---- good things, bad things, accidents, and surprises. The player will have to use their abilities to survive till the very end.
Card Design
The event cards are randomly placed on the map. Since I didn't want this game to be stressful and serious, I tried to make these scenarios funny and unexpecting.
The function cards give players special abilities on their turns. Inspired by Mario Party and some other board games, I picked and designed some abilities that seemed to be the most interesting to me.
The Characters
The Character Cards will be assigned randomly to each player at the beginning of the game. Players can use their special abilities throughout the game to achieve their goals.
Meanwhile, there'll also be chances for players to receive Girlfriend/Boyfriend Cards during the game. The girlfriend/boyfriend characters will play as players' allies and help them until the end.
Testing
Once I was done with the design process, I printed everything out and invited my friends to playtest the game to see if it was actually playable --- I was very glad that they enjoyed playing the game!
I also received some feedback and suggestions of the game, especially the design of the map, which would help me to continuously work on this project.
