  1. I started a Dvorak card deck to start playing with my family this weekend. Dvorak is a loose set of rules for creating a card game as you play. The game evolves with each play as players design cards to nullify, combo off, or nullify cards already in the deck. The game is really an excuse to be creative with a group and has a tendency to create inside jokes and create group lore.

  6. I've completely rebuilt the page design and updated the text and illustrations on my #itchio page as well as created a sales page on #TGC for the upcoming release of my custom deck design for #crowns

    thegamecrafter.com/games/crown

    sibachian.itch.io/crowns

    i also cleared up the rules a bit on the joker.

  7. It's official, I got a page on #BGG for my game! I also tossed the rules up on #wordpress, thinking - if there is one free place on the internet that will stay around for another 50+ years, it's wordpress, immune to change, not even AI will take their relevance down.

    I will use the wordpress page as the main rules ref page for the game.

  11. Finally finished the play example sheet (going to start working on the new rules sheet now). Hopefully I covered all the rules questions in active play 😅

  14. Finally managed to convince strangers to read through my rules over at #lemmy! Sadly it seems I hadn't been as clear as I though. I made some clarifications and you can check them out at the lemmy post lemmy.ml/post/32310100

  17. Me & my friend played 6 games of Crowns in a row during our lunch break today. The flow of the game, at least based on these 6 tests, was butterly smooth! Both of us discussed practical tactical strategies during play & the decision space felt massive. Mistakes were also easy to punish.

    I will run way more tests of course, but it actually feels like the game is nearing completion!

  20. I made some minor refinement of the rules and tossed them into #chatgpt, running around 100,000 different simulations of my game.

    Conclusively, the win rate for each player playing a perfect game is as follows:
    • Black 48.46%
    • Red 47.12%
    • Draw 4.42%

  25. Another night, another set of flaws! Arrr...

    The addition of Aces was a grand slam hit of awesome, but the jokers rebalance needs to go. They already added too much luck for the initial draw, and the update made it feel forced. Also changed the rule for how to deal with low cards in end game - not perfect yet.

  28. Did a few plays with my wife last night and came across a couple of problems which I've attempted to resolve in a new version (1.2).

    I also put the rules together on a pdf for A4 printout, splitting it up between basic and advanced.

    Hopefully someone would like to try it and give me some feedback!

  33. I’ve seen a lot of videos lately of the “mystery string game” being played by families on TikTok (pull one of 5 strings, see which plate containing a trick/treat moves)

    Do you and your loved ones have any made-up games that you play with each other around the holidays?
