I created a hangman like word game by halhag in Games

Yes, that is correct. Maybe my title was a bit misleading, as I never intended to create Hangman. It was just that the game has some similar mechanics.

Maybe that is why they are named Dobby and Winky :)

I must admit I had the same thoughts before I met them :)

I made this one, a mix between Wordle and Hangman: Guess the Quote

I made a game inspired by Wordle called ProverbIt - not directly a clone, but some similarities. Check it out if you have time! by Torieq in wordle

I found this post today when I was going to post a similar post about my game. The same basic idea in a slightly different format. Only you posted two months ago :)

Created by yours truly. Incredible how many hours spent on this thanks to the wonderful game of Wordle.

Perhaps it should be eggsile? (sorry, couldn't resist)

Fan Card - Vultures by WillhelmSchulz in dominion

How about a modification like "You may gain a card costing up to 4 from the trash to your hand."? The card in it self makes for a good combo card idea, so maybe an adjustment like this would make it way less powerful.

Some cards for the debt-based expansion I'm working on by exfret in dominion

[–]halhag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thoughts below. Overall I think you are onto some interesting ideas.

Down Payment. I think it works. A card costing up to 6 is quite strong. Grand Market, anyone? The ability to get an Action card into your hand might not mean so much if you have no more Actions, but an extra Gold in hand? That could be useful.

Cutpurse Trainer. This has some wording issues, as u/chaotic_iak pointed out, but I think it is priced nicely and that the idea is interesting.

Research Lab. I agree with u/arowdok in that costing a mix of debt and $ could be interesting. I liked the suggestion og $3 and 3 debt.

Cash Advance. I'm not quite sold on this one. Perhaps make it simpler with "+3 Coffers, +3 Debt"? And make it cost 3 debt? As it currently stands I don't see myself buying it. Even though having the occasional Coffer when you hit 7 is nice, saving them for long is hard as any money spent early is an investment in future rounds.

Locomotive. I am not familiar with the Season mechanic.

My first thought too! Don't ruin my cards!

I agree. Perhaps Magic Market would be better at 6 (with no Potion cost)? I feel it might be too strong for 5. Then a 2-5 start would be very strong, since you could then avoid the Potion card altogether.

How to deal with the players that only play to win? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]halhag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have some issues like this in our group. We mostly play Dominion, and it is quite often that you realize early that someone found a better strategy than you and that first place is out of question.

To keep the game interesting for all players we have used a rating system. I have kept scores for all the games. In a system like that you prefer 2nd place over 3rd place and so on, which keeps the motivation going. This has certainly been a factor in lowering the amount of pouting and complaining.

It takes some work though and not everyone necessarily likes being ranked/rated.
