Entries are in for the 9 card nano contest

I worked hard to get the rules done in time but Moogh and Nian are both “done”. Nian is a simple 9 card game with a Chinese new years theme – maybe it could have had more strategy and I hope that I can find the energy to explore the game.

Moogh ended up as a quite nice little game with a lot of things going on (I even stripped it down a lot). I think Moogh could work even better if there was no component restrictions – as it is now it suffers a little from the limited amount of tokens etc.

To write clear game rules is way more complicated than I initally thought it would be 🙂 During my final tests I played around in TableTopia and making the game playable online. You can take a look here

 

So I embrace the extra time I got. Currently I am working on making a Table Topia Tailored game – but I think I want to get a prototype done quickly to playtest the idea.

 

GUO NIAN – new year card game –

Welcome.  The Chinese new year 2016 is the Fire Monkey year. There are soo many traditions related to this festival – red clothes and firecrackers among many. There is an old story about a Monster called Nian that came every new year and killed villagers. One village discovered that the monster was afraid of the color red and loud noises. To celebrate this I made a card game for 2-8 players you may print and play with you friends or family.
