Title: yet more card game thoughts
Post by: KwartzTheKran on January 29, 2004, 10:20:22 am
(imagine top trumps with strategy crossed with whist.)
*each player chooses 5 cards out of there own deck.
*Each of these cards has stats on such as strength, speed, the differents crystal ways etc...
(each with there own strengths and weaknesses, higher level cards will probably have slightly higher stats)
(random gen chooses first person to go)
(player cant have more than 2 of same card)
*player 1 chooses stat (eg strength)
*player 2 may choose any of their 5 cards they think may beat it on this stat. (or choose a weak card and let other win this one if they dont think they can)
*whoever wins racks up one point and neither of these cards can be used for the remainder of the match.
*if player 1 wins they can choose stats again, if player 2 wins they can choose next.
* in the case of a draw or identical cards being player 1 point is given to each and person to choose changes.
*overall winner takes card off other person.

works too, tried and tested game with my sis.
thoughts?

Nice ideas with the cards but planeshift needs some variety. e.g

-Planeshifts own version of a game, something away from the card catagory.

-something that will make you use your brain and not you card collecting ability.

-something different

chess or checkers would be nice - planeshift orientated

anyways just a thought.

But how about make a sort of game inside the PlaneShift like it was done in Might & Magic series...

i think that chess or checkers w/ a PS slant would be much less original than a card game IMHO

I don\'t know. I think the game should have a bit more too it . a game where cards stats dictate the game give the advatage to the person with the best cards not the person who\'s best at the game.

or maybe the game should not be a card game at all.
you could always make it (plz don\'t hurt me for this) pokemon esque. say for instance you can pick a familiar or capute a smaller and weaker creature and fight other people\'s. i mean (don\'t hurt me for this either) it\'s really at the roots not a bad idea ,although over marketed and overly childrenized it\'s really not a bad idea. i think with some proper ground rules and such it could work quite nicely

(oh god what have i said).........hangs head in shame

i think that too many games have done pokemon esque type games...yes i know that many, many games have card games that force you to collect the cards but i beleive that gives you more room for making it original than a pokemon type game

Maybe the devs could make drinking games for the pubs and taverns. The more you play, the more experience you get and the better your tolerance. ;)  Lets face it, medival times didnt have cards, but they did have chess, checkers, and punch the foreigner.

Dont get me wrong, I would very much like to see collectable cards, chess, checkers, etc. in this game.
