Midterm Project, Non-Digital: Board Game

Design Statement The goal is to create a family friendly game that does not promote violence or war, but instead a culture of humanitarian support. By reinforcing concepts and processes of humanitarian aid, players will become acquainted with real-life situations but more importantly methods and strategies to address global issues.

Motivation Growing up, I always enjoyed games of strategy that required big picture logistics.

Solving problems and overcoming obstacles can be an important lesson taught by such games and thus my goal is to create a game that utilizes tactical decision making. It seems that war games are most common in this genre of games so creating a game with a positive focus was my intention. Being raised by parents involved with relief agenAudience and Content cies and humanitarian work I often played The audience for the board game is both imaginary aid-worker type games. Helping male and female for ages 12 and up. It is a people requires a similar amount of planstrategic game of moving supplies, people and funds over continents and across borders ning, strategy and mobilization of supplies and people as war games. Children have a by land, air and sea. It requires players to way unique way of seeing needs—they often collect support for their causes and spend wonder why more is not being done. This funding to mobilize aid convoys. The end game encourages the development of these goal is to help people through the missions inclinations rather than letting them ignore they are challenged with. To win players those instincts. must out play opponents by moving their supplies and people in place first

early game instructions | Point of the Game This is a strategic game of raising funds, moving aid supplies (food and medicine), and coordinating volunteers. The board displays a map of the world which is divided by country boundaries but connected by transit lines. Each Player represents a Relief Agency with individual missions to accomplish.

Setting up the Board Place the Player Agency pieces (up to six teams) at the starting point at the United Nations in New York City. Set the Situation Card and Supplies Card decks in place. Roll a die to determine who is going to campaign first. The player who scores the lowest score gets to campaign first. Campaigning involves each player placing Support Rings on cities with available space on their Pillars. Each player places N rings before the player to the left follows suit and so on. When all the Support Rings have been placed, each player pulls a Call to Mission and play begins.

game instructions | Travel Stops Travel lines correlate with the color of die being thrown. The Green Line is for travel by land and costs an additional 2,000 per stop.

The Blue Line is for travel by sea and costs an additional 5,000 per stop. The Yellow Line for travel by air and costs an additional 10,000 per stop.

Crossing the Border Countries charge taxes to allow supplies to pass through. The amount is indicated on the map border and must be paid for entrance. If no money is available player may stay in the closest Travel Stop on the line.

Supplies Card Supplies may be purchased only during a players turn. Upon purchasing Supplies, a Supplies Card is pulled to determine which port they will originate from.

Blocking Convoys Supply Crates may be “abandoned” should an agency want to slow down another. Other

agency’s must stop along transit lines where supplies have been left. The following round they may collect the donated Crate as there own and carry on.

Money Values Each player begins the game with $20,000.

If for some reason a player is out of money they must sell supplies and volunteers.

Agency Trading Trades may take place between players only when their agency’s have stopped at the same travel stops.

The Situation Card: Examples The Situation Card an be either a blessing or a curse as it will either speed things up set relief work back. It must be picked up at the beginning of the turn prior to rolling the dice. Several Travel Stops across the board also allow a Situation Card to be pulled.

Session Two: Analysis

The second session of game testing was absolutely necessary for game refinement. Instead of trying to figure out if the concept would actually work and be fun, the focus of the practice rounds was to fine tune the game flow and interactive aspects of the game. Everything was monitored, from setup time to each players turn. Important observations were made regarding game play that will be addressed in the Game Instructions accompanying each game set.

During this second round of testing two players unfamiliar to the game were introduced. Without a set of instructions with visual diagrams it was a challenge to explain how the game worked. While the game is complex with many different aspects of game play it is quite manageable once it can be explained. It is the type of game that must be shown to fully understand. After one round the game-play became more clear to the newcomers. Setup took a little less than 10 minutes. The first round players took about 4 minutes for each move. As subsequent rounds became more complex (with more activity around the board such as supply movement and trading in supply rings) turns took up to 10 minutes. In all 3 rounds of play with five players lasted for 1 hour and 32 minutes. The map had been thoroughly traversed and several players had begun mobilizing Supplies although none were close to approaching a complete mission.

Three key additions were made to the game upon observations made at the second testing session. It was clear that in order to get the game moving right away players needed to start with a larger amount of money. Money is the key to moving supplies and traveling for support just as it is in real life situations. To increase the cash flow another element was added to the Support Ring feature. Trading in 5 Support always provided you with $5,000 x 5 Rings = $25,000. Now in addition, a Gold Ring will be added to the Agency Pawn indicating that they have traded in in the past. At the beginning of a turn the player receives “Ongoing Support” of $3,000 per Gold Ring they have collected— prior to pulling The Situation Card.

Campaign for Support. Mark the end of your turn by placing 3 Support on the cities of your choice.

Mission Cards Mission Cards determine each players specific task to complete before they can announce success. Players do not need to inform opponents of their Mission until they have been completed. At the beginning of the game players determine how many Missions are required to win. Approximate game length can be determined by the amount of mission cards. A full game consists of both long and short term missions, although choosing one mission can make for a shorter game.

The Situation Card The Situation Card is either a blessing or a hindrance. Players are to pickup The Situation Card before rolling the dice. Additional Situation Cards can be drawn if a player chooses to stop at one of the two locations on the board showing a mini Situation Card.

Rolling the Travel Dice You may roll up to 3 of the 4 dice after pulling the Situation Card. The color of die being thrown correlates with the color of die being thrown. The dice indicate how many travel nodes can be made in that turn according to the die color and intended travel route. Once a die has been used to move either a player piece or a set of supplies it may no longer be used. Stopping or transferring travel methods renders any previously used travel rolls dead.
