Variants
6 Nimmt - While on vacation when the kids didn’t want to play a four-person game, I designed a two-person unofficial variant to play with my wife, who loves 7 Wonders Duel.
Incan Gold (Diamant) - I started to design an unofficial two-person variant that used the idea of an assistant who will double-cross one of the explorers.
Palace: River and Stone - My wife and I devised a way to play Palace and use all 56 cards in the exquisite River and Stone deck, the playing cards designed by Beth Sobel.
Rainbow's End - I designed an unofficial two-person variant for Gang of Four so my wife and I could play more.
“Rainbow’s End” - an unofficial two-person variant for Gang of Four that centers on the 1-wild card.
Disc Golf
Number - A disc golf putting game I designed during COVID-19 when I was trapped with only a portable basket in my backyard.
Ideas
I want to design a game about:
A time when I was a wildland fire fighter at the Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park.
Ocean tides and ‘opihi, the Hawaiian limpit.
Time travel and a dystopian future you could "play" in real life.
Kamoamoa lava delta, Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park, Big Island of Hawai’i (1992 - Wikipedia).
