Project 5 - Game Plan

I told my group (Emeka & Jason) to create their own individual game concepts and then later we can in cooperate each others ideas into one big refined better concept.

Street Life Gamble
Age over 18+
Players 2-8


This the game concept I came up with on my own. It has a gambling essence as the currency of this game is your own currency meaning your real life money. With minimum entry of £1 and no restrictions on max entry it provides a fun and rewarding experience through this game of chance. I thought I break the game board conventions of a big square and opted for a unique oblong for the main part of the board. There is a separate part of the board but that is used to hold the money that is accumulated through out the game from the initial 30% start up from all player, mugger and rent spaces players will be landing on. This acts as one aspect of the reward you get for finishing the game. More is detailed in the rules and regulations.



I came up with this idea from playing monopoly and other various  board games and card games. I decided to make real money the currency in this game as I took that element from gambling such as poker and 21 etc. Also made it refer to real life occurrences such as being mugged, paying rent and signing on which these spaces can be landed on.



It provides a fresh new fun gambling experience that people are always looking for.

This was Jason copping idea.

Granddad's Ashes Rules

Number Of Players: 2 - 4
Age Rating: 4 +





The rules to Granddad's Ashes are as follows:
All players upon starting the game receive between 5 - 10 poker chips ( all players will have the same amount to make it fair.) The objective of the game is to throw poker chips into the Urn with one throw per turn. If one of the poker chips lands on the green ( the grass ) or on the urn but not in that player gets to throw again. If the poker chip goes in or lands outside the green area it is the adjacent players turn. The game continues until one player has thrown all they're poker chips into the urn once this has been done that player wins. 

After a group meeting we decided this was not the game we was going to run with so we developed an educational game appealing to people from a young age all the way to the elderly. This will mean are game is easily accessible and therefor sell in great numbers as it is an entertaining educational math game, designed to test quick math skills and mental arithmetic.


This is the idea the whole team worked on after I suggested the idea we all worked on it and created a fun educational math game called roll em up. This will encourage and nurture mathematical skills as well quick on the spot mental arithmetic which is important in most professions and getting good grades in school etc.

Final Group Designed game.

Rules Of Roll Em Up ( Game )
Number Of Players: 2 +
Age Rating: 10 +

First you will need:
1 x Piece Of Paper
1x Pen or Pencil
1x 19 Sided Die ( Included in set )
The rules for Roll Em Up are as follows:

First you take an ordinary piece of A4 paper ( preferably A4 as its about the right size for adding the scores )to use as a scoreboard then write down  with the pen or pencil the names of said players that will be playing the game.

Pick one of the people playing to start the game. The first person rolls the 19 sided die  and writes down the result, Next the second player rolls the die and writes down their result and so on and so fourth until all players have done this. There will be a set time limit ( e.g 10 minutes, 20, minutes, 1hr e.c.t ) each player takes it in turns rolling the die at the end of the time limit all the numbers rolled are added up ( You may use a calculator for this ) and the person with the highest score wins. If there's a draw it goes to sudden death till one person rolls higher than the other.
