“A perfect game for ending friendships” 😂
The game is done. The trailer is coming

I’m thinking about making a Kickstarter stretch goal to make cool dice, where the #6 side is a symbol of some kind. Originally I was thinking an ancient rune, but now I’m thinking something abstract that would make the characters go, “HOLD ON, I think this might be a map!”

Doing another digital playtest using Roll20... I keep finding rooms but no "master chest." There's a chance my team won't make it out alive by the time the trap deck runs out...

Update! Of course the "final boss" happened in the room where we finally found the master chest, just as a trap was triggered, sealing off Adelia from her fellow explorer, Gilbert. Adelia raced through and Gilbert went around, chased by two mummies and two surprise characters

Trying out the game on Roll20.net ... thinking I could offer a graphics pack on the marketplace as an easy way to jump into the game? Also, Roll20 supports online play (if anyone is interested in testing out the game) and background music! 😊🎵

Rulebook 95% done! Later on I’ll give it a once over to make sure I lined everything up correctly. Then... test print!

Trying a DnD battle system using LOTR cards... lower dice pictured is health. Upper dice pictured is damage roll plus the “axe” modifier depicted on the card. For balance I’m going to make Eleanor a cleric.

One of the first things you do in #RuinsRaiders is build the map as you go. Each time you play will be a different environment. Ruinsraiders.com
