Jeff's World of Game Design: 4p playtest and Trade Routes

http://jwarrend.blogspot.com/2011/04/4p-playtest-and-trade-routes.html

Jeff's World of Game Design. Saturday, April 9, 2011. 4p playtest and Trade Routes. One ongoing issue that I need to address is what to do when a player's bonuses from Structures and Advances authorize him to take an action for free (eg build a structure at no cost) - how many "free" actions may he take? Two ideas for possible changes emerged, one sparked by a suggestion and one by an observation. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). For more information about Sands of Time, start here.

Jeff's World of Game Design: December 2014

http://jwarrend.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html

Jeff's World of Game Design. Monday, December 29, 2014. I've just signed a publication contract for Sands of Time with a German publisher. I'll wait to say more until they've announced it; there may be some internal development that will take place. But, a nice step forward for the game for sure! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I use this blog primarily for updates about my civilization-building game, "Sands of Time", which has been accepted for publication by Spielworxx with a target release date of 2016.

Jeff's World of Game Design: January 2015

http://jwarrend.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html

Jeff's World of Game Design. Tuesday, January 27, 2015. The time of Sands. Is there anything more irritating than blog post titles that try too hard to be clever? I don't really think so.]. One criticism that pretty much all civ games receive, and almost all deserve, pertains to how they handle. Now I think that Sands is guilty of this criticism in spades. But, I thought it might be interesting to see whether judicious choices of terminology, and thinking about the game in the right way, might be abl...

Jeff's World of Game Design: August 2013

http://jwarrend.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html

Jeff's World of Game Design. Saturday, August 10, 2013. A (possible) new take on population growth. It would treat population, and "headroom" in your territories, as a resource in a way that the game hasn't previously, and it might be interesting as a way to retain some of the features that the events will no longer provide, and also to create an additional source of interesting and challenging considerations for the players.

Jeff's World of Game Design: January 2013

http://jwarrend.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html

Jeff's World of Game Design. Wednesday, January 30, 2013. Sands of Time in a nutshell. I realized today that most of the posts in this blog go deep into the weeds of the design, but there isn't a basic overview of what the game is all about. So this post is intended to provide a 30,000 foot view of the game. The game lasts for four Epochs; each Epoch ends with a scoring phase, and each is divided into Generations, which represent the lifespan of an individual ruler. Each Generation lasts for a certai...

Jeff's World of Game Design: The Goal

http://jwarrend.blogspot.com/2009/06/goal.html

Jeff's World of Game Design. Thursday, June 25, 2009. A while back, I posted a comment to a. Blog article by Shannon Appelcline. That captures what I think a civ building game ought to include. I'm posting that here as a good summary of the overall goal of this project:. I would say that the following are elements that a Civ game needs to provide to really communicate the right feel:. Specialization: As players progress down a particular path of differentiation, it becomes either easier to continue down ...
