Paper Prototype

Battle Dice



This game was created in the first exercise for paper prototyping. Me and another classmate started drawing grid on a piece of paper and blocked off some dead squares. The materials we had were a pair of dice and paper. It looks similar to chess or checkers board game. In the beginning we decided to just play and see where it needed it to be refined. After couple play test and several trials and errors and the condensing of the rules. We came up with Battler Dice.

The second play test at home I decided to see if I could add more rules to make it more complicated. The problem that I found out is that it slowed the pace of the game and made it more boring for the players. I decided to leave the rule minimal and simple for a faster pace game that is more fun to play.

Purpose of the game is to get your 3 tokens to other side of the grid.

Rules:

Higher Roll
Starts

Roll Dice
1,2,3 to Advance
Up, Down, Sides

When players meet you have to battle:
Both Players roll dice whoever gets higher
Roll wins. Loser moves back to starting point.

When Landing on M space you are able
to move 3 spaces to wherever you like.

When Landing on B space you move
back from where you came from. 

The winner is the player who has
all 3 coins on the opponent side.
