Idea Inspiration for Board Game Project 2

Sadly, i still do not have a clear idea for what i want to make for my board game. Thus, i decided to try out more board game as inspirations.

Oasis

A game which requires you to create an area as big as possible in order to score points. You will also need to think strategically which offer should you take to help you expand your empire and to score as much points as possible







San Juan

A game which has five different roles and act on a round by round basis. The five different roles (Prospector, Councillor, Builder, Trader, Producer) will carry out different actions. The main objectives is to utilize the roles and buildings well in order to score as much victory points as possible












Both game utilizes strategic planning in order to win. The gameplay require you to think of several steps ahead in order to win. The rules was fairly long and complicated, but once we try it out. It was fairly easy to understand and have fun.

I would most likely make a strategic board game and i will try to add in simple rules to make it easier to read and understand so players would not spend a large amount of time figuring out how the game works.
