As a group we have finalized our decision to go along with a Candy Land Insurrection theme where players are represented by characters from the original Candy Land. They have endured over 60 years of candy stealing and child play and it's about time to put an end to the madness! Every player comes equip with their own special abilities based on their character persona. The children have become the "invaders" and must be exterminated. Each player must defend their territory as well as ward off the children from the sweet land.
We have been discussing possible game rules and mechanics. Now that a theme has been established it is time to figure out how the players will deal with the "invaders" as they move across the board and terrorize the land. Players must defend their own proximity by building towers and shooting at the invaders. Figuring out how the towers will be constructed is our main concern as of this point. Tower ideas, player movement and art ideas are up for discussion....this may not be as sweet as it seems! Mint musketeers, lethal candy canes and the evil Gloppy man are all out to secure their land from the unwanted children.
By next week we will have abstract pieces (board included) to get a better idea of how we will want our game to play out. Beforehand we must start limiting our ideas in order to avoid future complications.
