[WIP] Queen's Quest - A Tabletop Roguelike | BoardGameGeek

Paul Bellow · Jul 18, 2017

Overview
Queen's Quest is a cooperative, asymmetrical dungeon-crawler board game for 1 to 6 players, playable in 60 to 90 minutes. Extreme care was taken throughout the design of Queen’s Quest to uphold the integrity of an authentic roguelike. We kept to using pure black backgrounds, mono-space fonts, lower ASCII characters for the dungeons, and the 16 standard VGA colors. The game includes critical roguelike elements such as a high fantasy setting, procedurally generated dungeons, resource management, rich character development, monster dens, the choice to return to town when desired, appropriate complexity and depth of gameplay, and perma-death. We believe we have faithfully recreated the wonder, mystery, intensity, and pure awesomeness of a true roguelike.

Plans
Queen's Quest is being submitted to The Game Crafter Dungeon-Crawler contest in August, 2017, and we will also be seeking out the perfect publisher for this unique board gaming experience. While the core game doesn't require this hyper-authentic retro-roguelike theme, we believe it holds something truly special and unique within the gaming industry.

This WIP Thread
I will be posting to this thread regularly over the next 30 days, as I finalize everything for the contest submission. The game has been in development for many months now, so the next few posts will follow quickly with many examples of the game's components and artwork. We look forward to hearing any and all feedback!
