[iOS/Android] Castle Combo Digital version available

8 Upvotes

Hi all!

Some of you might remember a post a while back about the digital version of Witchcraft! Thanks again for the support, it meant a lot to a small team like ours.

We’ve just released our second adaptation: the official digital version of Castle Combo, the card drafting and tableau-building game by Catch Up Games (designed by Grégory Grard & Mathieu Roussel, illustrated by Stéphane Escapa). It’s out now on iOS and Android.

This one was a tricky game to adapt, because we didn’t want to just port it over as-is. We put a lot of work into creating a solo campaign that offers a different way to enjoy the game, and we built several bots so it still works great when you don’t have people around to play with.

It’s only been out for a few days, and while we’ve poured a lot of effort into it, the game still has room to grow. We’re hoping to add the expansions soon, and to expand it with more campaigns and bots if people enjoy it.

I really hope you like it, and I’m more than happy to answer any questions you have!

Thanks for reading!

Crown Dash: a small chess variant where you can also win by walking your king to the back rank

• Upvotes

I made a variant and I'd like to hear what people here think of the rules.

Setup: 8x8 board, but each side only has 6 pieces: 1 Crown (moves like a king), 3 Warriors (also move like a king) and 2 Riders (knights).

White: Warriors c2 d2 e2, Riders b1 f1, Crown d1

Black: Warriors d7 e7 f7, Riders c8 g8, Crown e8 (mirrored)

You win by capturing the enemy Crown, or by getting your own Crown onto the enemy back rank. There's no check or checkmate, no castling, no promotion and

no draws. You can walk into danger, and if your Crown gets taken you just lose.

Each player also picks one Power Move before the game and can use it once:

- Dash: move any piece up to 2 squares in a straight line (it's your move, and it can capture)

- Guard: your Crown can't be captured until your next turn (you still make a move)

Games are on a clock (1, 3, 5, 10 or 30 min). The idea came from Ashtapada, the old Indian 8x8 board.

I built it as a free phone game (iPhone and Android, no ads). You can play the computer, which is labelled as a computer, or send a friend a link.

Two things I'm unsure about:

  1. Does the back-rank race give the first player too much of an edge?
  2. Which seems stronger to you, Dash or Guard?

[PC] Can you beat Gambit 34 in Gold Coast Gambits: Boca Raton & Palm Beach?

1 Upvotes

I’m Lars, the developer. Gold Coast Gambits is the digital version of our hand-drawn board game, which we’re working on publishing. The digital version has 50 solo puzzles we call Gambits. The higher the number, the harder they get, and each level introduces a new character with a unique ability.

This is Gambit 34, where you play Roxana. She can force any player to skip their turn (twice). She faces 3 bots, each with their own personality: the Flamingo Queen, the Magician and the Pirate.

To solve it, you have to flip 2 Lagoon cards and 4 Atlantic cards, and finish with the most prestige points. Flipping the cards is the easy part. Winning on prestige while doing it is the hard part. You need a bit of luck and to use Roxana’s power at the right moment.

The game is 30% off on Steam this week, so it’s a good time to try.

I made 3D tic-tac-toe with dice battles—would love some honest playtest feedback

Hey everyone! I’m building Mycelium Battles, a browser game that starts with three-dimensional tic-tac-toe: three stacked 3×3 boards, with three in a straight line in any direction winning the game.

The twist? You can challenge an opponent’s occupied square. Both players roll a die. Higher roll wins the battle, ties reroll, and the battle winner owns the square and plays next. Each square can only be challenged once.

Making three in a row with a new placement also gives your opponent one final chance to challenge that square. Winning a battle alone doesn’t win the game—you still need that line of three.

🍄 "Play the free browser demo" (https://triple-cube-tic-tac-toe.docjames365.chatgpt.site/)

No download, account, or payment needed. Play against the computer or pass one device between two players. There’s a How to play button above the board.

I’d especially appreciate feedback on:

- Are the rules and board easy to understand?

- Do the battles feel fun and fair?

- Would you play another round?

Bugs, confusing moments, and blunt opinions are all welcome. Thanks for giving it a try!

[DEV] I launched my 21+ tabletop party game as an app first to fund the physical cardboard release! Davado 2020 is live.

Hey everyone,

​I’ve been building a 21+ party board game called Davado 2020. Manufacturing a massive physical board game is incredibly expensive, so I decided to code and launch it as a digital Android app first!

​My ultimate goal is to build our community digitally and use the app to finally fund the physical cardboard boxes.

​The game is officially available right now on Google Play. There is a free 1-round demo, and unlocking the full game is just a one-time $4.99 purchase with zero ads.

​Check out the attached gameplay trailer to see the vibe! Tag a friend in the comments you think would love to play this at your next game night.

​You can download it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dalaneyroberts.davado2020
