Direction 1
- Multi-player game (4-8 players)
- Board is similar to chutes and ladders where players can progress and regress depending on the square they land on
- Squares tell a story, similar to the game Episode
- Narrative Squares: players will make choices that will earn them points
- Need ideas for other types of squares!
- Digital app helps keep track of the cards; players will “pick a card from the pile” via the app. App also can help keep track of points
- Win condition: person who can make it to the last square with the most points
- Types of fun/narrative approach: emergent narrative, fellowship/fantasy/narrative
Direction 2
- Multi-player game (4-8 players)
- Escape room type game
- Each year in college represents a different level
- Advancing from level to level requires solving a puzzle (passwords, locks, secret messages)
- Players progress through the board together and gather clues
- Clues can be uncovered via riddles, logic puzzles, etc (need help with thinking about the clue mechanism)
- Win condition is successfully escaping
- Types of fun/narrative approach: embedded narrative, fellowship
Direction 3
- Multi-player game (4-8 players)

- Types of fun/narrative approach: emergent narrative, fantasy/narrative fun
