Make your own card game

[Birdbrain]

This is the thread were you make up your own card game (different from magic) or any kind of game and post it. I want to make my own game, and might stitch pieces into it from this thread. Or might just use a whole idea altogether, adding in my own ideas.

Only one problem with ur idea... It must be really original and u cannot use expressions like "hand", "library", "graveyard", "exile", "battlefield" and few other expressions... bcs mr. Garfield has copyright on those word mexhanics for card games..

[Birdbrain]

Yes. But I have an idea that's very different than magic. Want me to share?

[Hunteroffire9]

Sure

[Birdbrain]

Well. The whole bases of the game is to tell a story. And the various cards do that. You also have various divisions in genre that you can play just like the various divisions in magic. I suppose the deck could be called a book, and each individual card is a page. Your opponents cards however interact with yours, because the imagination of the world went haywire allowing for this kind of thing. There are various plot cards you can play to progress towards winning. And a couple more card types as well. I'm still threshing out the details though

I like where it's going but don't really see how you would win

i have an idea of how you would win, though its still a bit muddled and needs to be threshed out

You could do something like in the story each player is a common folk to start and hose up in the ranks or fame as it goes and in the end make it do the winner is the one with more fame so it would be a set amount of turns but add twist like the other person can die and lose or the one that is a higher rank at the end
Just throwing ideas out there

yea. I was thinking of doing a charecter development thing like in the "full metal alchemist" card game. But I don't know
