Here we go!

So this is a blog hopefully to let people know where I am at in the development of my board game Marooned (at least that's what it's called at the moment, that might change).

So... what is Marooned (or Whatever) where did it spring from? Well, when I was a Drama Student in That-There-London I got into playing board and card games quite heavily. Many hours were spent playing things like Magic the Gathering, Talisman and Illuminati the CCG. I was also quite into Logic Puzzles and in one book there was a puzzle/game which involved a dice on a chessboard type affair.

Marooned grew from thinking about this puzzle and various other things (more of this later) this is just a first post.

The basics of Marooned (or Something) is to get your little men from one side of the board to the other using the blocks to form a path whilst trying to stop the other players from doing so.

You can have 2-4 players but I think that the demo version I'm going to produce will just be the 2 player game... here have some pictures of the very demo set with the crayon drawn board we used this weekend.

So there you are.. some pretty pictures and a bit of a rambling text.. that should do you to start off with!
