Ideas for a board/card/dice game?

Oswaldo Rayburn: A carnival game. Make a spinner with the places the arrow could land on 4 different colors, "Take a Ticket", and "Give a ticket". Like Candy Land, color each square on the board a possible color that the spinner could land on in a pattern. Make 25+ tickets, depending on how long your game road is. Make game pieces. Then make bridges connecting squares on the road, but make the bridges look like carnival rides. Each carnival ride bridge costs a certain amount of tickets to cross, depending on how many squares you skip.How To Play1. Each player starts out with 3 tickets2. In reverse age order, players take turns spinning the spinner.3.. If it lands on a color, advance to the nearest square of that color4. If it lands on Give a Ticket, you must give one of your tickets to the "Ticket Man". Te chosen Ticket Man cannot keep the tickets for himself to use, but must put them to the side.5. If it lands on Take a Ticket, then you can take a ticket from the pile on! the side.6. If your piece lands on a color that is the beginning of a carnival ride bridge, then if you have enough tickets, you may choose to cross the bridge or not for the required number of tickets.7. First one to get to the prize booth wins!...Show more

Mandy Mustaro: there's a lot of very simple games out there for you to draw ideas from, like zombie dice for a short an entertaining die game. how about a racing game where you have to try to get to a space before other players and along the way gain cards that allow you to hinder their ability to get their first. Draw from elements of Mario Kart. or you might adapt the rules from a playing card game like go fish or war, devolpe your own rules and add things like dies to the game. there's a lot of places to draw inspiration from, think of something you really enjoy doing and try to invent that into a board game....Show more
