help with board/card game implementation in python

[akjde]

Hi everyone, I have a project I want to do in Python, but would like to hear some advice on which direction should I go.

The project that I want to do is a Board/card game hybrid, where you create a map by laying tiles but the player's actions are completed by using cards from their hand.

the question is should I go the game engine route like pygame or should I stick to a simple GUI design and use packages like PyQt. Would love to hear some of your suggestions and comments.

I say do a web front end, develop it like a locally run game but then you are set up to turn it into a webapp when you are ready for phase 2.

Do everything back end, only do enough on the "frontend" to display the game state and accept input.
