GRID the Boardgame

Grid, the boardgame!

This is the group project that my team and I are to be working on.
We know that each of us needs to use our Huddersfield grid as the basis not only for our game but also to find a way to include each of ours into this project.

We have decided to keep the gameplay mechanics simple where possible as it will make for easier gaming and look at something that will be a good idea to complete our own take on the project while still sticking to a frame work.

So far, we have this to begin with:

The Basics

The GRID game, is a simple more "old fashioned" type boardgame.

The object of the game is to build as large a group of blocks (buildings) on one your gameboard before the other players beat you to it.

The Buildings are made up from different shaped geometric shapes, making it more difficult for you to place your pieces as you go.

A die roll will determine what size block you get on your turn, but your opponent picks the shape.

There are also cards that can be drawn, which will greatly alter the outcome of the game.

Bigger pieces could be worth more resulting in a greater final score.

You can also remove and hinder other players as they try to build larger areas up.


We're not to sure of the finer details, but are going to be mocking up boards and trying some game testing to see what does and doesn't work.
