Trade Nation

Trade Nation is a game that we have just finished developing and will be released soon.

We have had prototypes made and currently it is out for review. But let us not underplay this product...we are extremely excited about what Trade Nation offers!

Trade Nation is a card game of selling resources and affecting market values.  Collect and sell sets of resources and create an active market that is tipped in your favour.  At the same time prevent the other players from gaining the upper hand, by devaluing resources they appear to be collecting. The player who has gained the most points when all resources have been sold, during and at the end of the game, is the winner.

Coming off the back of our successful Kickstarter Dark Force Incursion this new card game Trade Nation also relies of strong simple game Mechanics that made DFI a success story. It brings you a family game much in the mold of UNO or MONOPLOY DEAL that is designed with universal appeal. It has straightforward mechanics and a bold colourful appearance. It can be learned in five minutes, is played by 2-6 players, and the 120 cards are stored in a rigid box which is portable and durable.



PRE-ORDERING WILL OPEN SOON AND THE LINK WILL BE PROVIDED HERE AND ON KICKSTARTER. ALTERNATIVELY EMAIL US at darkrealmmaps@gmail.com

Presenting Dark Force Incursion - A FREE Roll and Write One Player Game

It has been on my mind for a while now as the Corona-virus spreads across the world . What can I offer those who are at home and unable to partake in their usual gaming sessions because of isolation. How can a creative mind help alleviate the stress of boredom and worry? I have seen other roll and write games and thought that might be a great way of giving something to the community to these very ends.    Looking at what I have previously worked on under the DR Games and the hex tile has been a feature. I decide that I would try and use this format, combine it with a number mechanism and inject it with a narrative. This became a scenario that fuel the fire of the story...and Dark Force Incursion was born.   " Y o u r l a n d h a s b e e n i n v a d e d b y a p o w e r f u l D a r k F o r c e .

Board Game Stats Sheet

Board Game Stats Sheet Considering I’m creating a board game, and plan to do more in the future, I thought it wise to have a look at some of the stats of other successful board games. This table is just some of my research, but I thought it would be interesting to share here. These numbers are taken from Amazon and Board Game Geek (BBG) and so can vary and play time can stretch or shrink.

Kickstarter Notify Me Page…do we advertise it?

It has been months in the making but now finally our card game Trade Nation is on Kickstarter. Well, I mean the notify page is up so people can go there, click on the notify me button, and they will receive an email when the project goes live on Tuesday. Of course, this whole process brings a certain amount of trepidation. It has been interesting setting up the Preview page because it raises a number of questions about how you run a campaign. It’s great to be able to pick up the clicks before the actual campaign goes live, so as I said before people receive their notifications, but do you actually advertise the notify me page or do you wait until the actual campaign goes live? It is a bit of a conundrum. I have put out a Facebook advert pushing the notify page but have decided to wait on the rest of my advertising budget for when the page actually goes live. I really do not know if this is a mistake and I am very curious as to what the standard conversion rate is for notify me clic...
