Game Ideas: Illuminati board game SINGLEPLAYER EXTRAVAGANZA!

Good day every reader out there!

I’ve been working with a small team of 4 people for the last couple of months to create a singleplayer board game. I was a little skeptic to it at first, but after running through some prototypes we are finally getting it to work. The game now actively works to protect itself and it really feels like the odds are stacking up against you the more noticed you get by the game.

The game itself is based on taking over a small country as a secret society. The country is led by a president that need to protect is city from you. You do this by buying companies, bribing politicians and security officers so they help you. By the time you’ve set up you start to sabotaging the companies and politicians that are defending the current president, the ultimate goal is to buy the president, not being known yourself.

Today we worked on getting the feeling of the entire game right, writing down characters, researching secret societies, nailing the game phases and giving the board game actual goals (Like Winning conditions). We also gave the players a way to lose, depending on what you did the chances that you were found increased. If you were found, game over.

Generally it looks awesome, now we just need to start working on increasing the threat of the state and making the game a little smoother to play (also not taking 1-2 hours to finish when testing).

Look forward to it, since we might publish it!
