Apokalipsa

Apokalipsa

Apokalipsa (pronounced Ay-poh-kah-leep-sah) is a .. I am not really sure how classify the genre. As a survivor of the recent apocalypse you seek to take back and settle the city of Kasprzak. You win the game if you can settle 30 a total of 30 survivors. You lose if everyone in your group dies.

I haven't had much time to see if the game is balanced okay or not. This game may be quite difficult or quite easy. I'm hoping somewhere in the middle.

Issues/Changelog

NOTE POST-COMPO-CHANGE: I did tweak things just a little bit so that ammo would drop more because it wasn't dropping enough to warrant needing 3 to upgrade a fighter. In retrospect you get enough food every time that the medical cards are basically useless :P Please rate keeping in mind the original build was a bit more difficult.

0 and 8 look too similar in the font I shouldn't have included the dot in the middle.

Gameplay

Every turn as 2 to 3 phases.

Movement Phase

In phase 1 you move your group. The outskirts are rural, that moves to suburban and urban as you move to the center. Rural tiles are lower risk and take 3 survivors to settle. Urban tiles are the most risky but will settle 9 survivors. Once you settle a tile you may move through it freely. Otherwise every tile change triggers the next phase...

Action Phase

In this phase you face a situation. You can respond by fighting, looting and running, or just running. Each action has risk of consequences

#### Fighting

This is the most risky action and always carries the chance of a death to the group. If you fight you will always receive the scouted resource cards. Fighting is the only way to make it to the 3rd phase.

#### Looting & Running

In this action you will get at least 1 of the resource cards, at random. This carries the same risks as running, but carries with it an additional risk.

#### Running

In this action there is risk, but no reward outcome. Usually, the risk will be less than fighting. With both running, and looting and running,* you will lose 1 wellness point and immediately go back to the Movement Phase.

#### Resource Cards

Every Action Phase will have a number of scouted resource cards. These are the resources you'll get if you fight or may get if you loot & run. Resource cards are used to buy things in the Resting phase.

#### Risks & Consequences

Every action has associated risks with known consequences. There are 3 consequences:

* Death: Someone in your group will die
* Injury: You will lose an additional wellness point
* Damage: You will lose resource cards

Resting Phase

If you Fight you'll enter the Resting Phase. In this phase you can use the resource cards you have gathered. You can restore wellness points. You can upgrade one of your group to a fighter. Or you can settle the tile you are on.

#### Wellness Points

Wellness points are a hunger clock of sorts. You need to keep your wellness points above 0. If you do not keep them above zero then members of your group will desert your group 1 per turn until your group is no more. use Food and Medical cards to increase these during the Resting Phase. Running diminishes your wellness points through attrition.

##### Fighters

To settle a tile (see below) you will need a special class of survivor called a fighter. These are indicated by the use of green. To add additional fighters you need to collect a weapon card and 3 ammo cards.

##### Settling A Tile

Settling tiles requires you to have enough members of your group to settle the tile, including the required number of fighters, building materials, and food. The cost of settling is dependent on your map location. Rural has less cost, urban has more, suburban is in the middle. When you settle a tile, the members of your group leave.

When you are done with the resting phase you may return to the Movement phase.

Game Ends When...

The game will end if you either complete the mission of settling 30 of your group, or if everyone dies or deserts the group.

A note on theme usage

The original design for this game called for other factions to attack your settlements (the more you have). Due to time constraints I opted instead for the size of your group to adjust difficulties. It will be more costly for you to run or loot and run when you have a large group. However, it becomes less risky to fight. I wish I had more time to incorporate the theme better.

THANK YOU FOR PLAYING!
