This is a mockup to show how much space we could have and potential layouts for a character card.

All art, design and font is a placeholder.


ROUND 1

  • Legendary Character (player plays as)

  • Standard Character (actual person or a group of people)
  • Item Cards
  • Major Event round 1 (happens every game) (moderator plays that event)
  • General Event round 1 (drawn at random)


ROUND 2

  • Legendary Character (player plays as)
  • Standard Character (actual person or a group of people)
  • Item Cards
  • Major Event round 2 (happens every game) (moderator plays that event)
  • General Event round 2 (drawn at random)

Question: How does one buy a card with a cost? Do we simply trade the cards and not have a cost to them?

Event Cards needed = 3xs the amount that are played


Instruction Booklet design:

Small pro box (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/publish/product/SmallProBox). This box can hold up to 68 cards' worth of thickness, and two poker decks can fit into it side by side. You would have room for your cards plus a 20-page small or medium booklet.
