Hey y'all, we finally got to our 5 player in person playtest and had an absolute blast! I have a pretty in-depth go over of it which has a lot of info about my general process for playtesting as a whole!

In particular, I'm focusing on player interaction with one another.
- What makes a player worth allying with?
- What makes a player untrustworthy?
- At what point do interests align or contradict?
- How much will spite play into this as a factor?
All that and more!

Dev log 1! Playtest Prep!
With an in person playtest happening soon, I've prepped up what data I wanted to focus on for this time around. This will be the first time playtesting with more than 4 players, so I'll see how chaotic everything can get
I'll let you know how it goes soon!

So often do I find myself going in with one goal and ending with another lol

Just received the first paper prototype for my upcoming board game, We Must Unite Them! 🎉 Thank you so much to The Game Crafter for the quick turnaround. It’s so exciting to see my idea finally coming to life! :)

If backstabbing your friends on game night after scheming and conniving sounds fun on game night, feel free to join this Discord server to playtest!

With each player having separate goals and ways to interact with the game, negotiations are all about trust and compromise. Each round holds new stakes for what each player gains and loses, testing your trust in new ways! Backstab each player when it fits your needs, and discard them like tools!

In this campaign game, you play as up to 6 royal houses vying for control as you attempt to weather a threat to your kingdom. Each round a new event occurs, and you discuss both in public and private what you want to do, forming proposals about what you wish to do and vote on them.

Introducing We Must Unite Them, our first-ever game! A social board game of medieval politics where royal houses must unite to survive a crisis that threatens devastation of your kingdom... but only one will rise above the rest. Decide the fate of you and others. Cooperate to endure, betray to rule.
