Conquer the elements in a strategy grid-based game in which unit choice can help to achieve your goal of enemy capture.
Thank you for viewing our page!
Crescent is an elemental strategy game that gives you the option to place your pieces in any combination you choose to gain your opponent's pieces. Not only can you capture their elements, you may also gain that elements power, adding power to your own.
Features:
-7 elements to choose from: fire, earth, wind, water, lightening, sun, and crescent, with sun and crescent being the most powerful.
-Like other strategy games, each element has it's own move set.
-1-2 player game averaging 10-30 minutes per game.
-2 player multiplayer over network. Normal push notification styled gameplay so you can game with friends over a several day period.
At this time, we have created a prototype board, shown below, to test all the piece movements, different rules, and different end game scenarios.
Currently our game prototype is very simple but for the electronic versions we plan on including new aspects into the game.
One game mode we plan on including would be a RPG style of gameplay. This would give your pieces more power and the ability to level up durring each game. For example, if you take out several of your opponent's pieces with your fire piece, then it will gain levels and become more powerful increasing its move range. But with that said, an elements base power still comes into play. While you may have a high level fire piece your opponent could still trump you with a lower level water piece. This gameplay mode will allow the player to be more strategic with their pieces. No longer are you just worrying about piece movement but also if your piece will have enough strength to take your opponent's piece.
Another game feature we plan on implementing will be element "zones". This idea centers around certain like pieces next to each other creating more powerful zones on the board. An example of this would be if you have two fire pieces next to one another. These pieces will create a "Fire Zone" which will make it more difficult for different element types to attack these pieces.
By backing our Kickstarter, you will help us take our board game prototype and create versions for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod. We will use our donations to fund for music, art work, and play testing equipment.
If we double our goal, we will create a version for the Xbox. If we triple our goal, we will create a version for Android. And if we quadruple, we will peruse taking our board game prototype into a production ready game to purchase in stores.
