I wrote a Dice Game where you can build your City just like in a city-building Game on the Computer. Think about Simcity or a Tycoon Style Building Game.
I leave a Link to the Game here if you are interested. Please check it out. Thank you for your support.
What do you need to play? You need a 10×10 Grid Paper. You can use different Grids where you can Earase or just a normal Grid Paper. Or you can print out the Last Page on the PDF to Play on the Grid provided.
And we need Dice. A lot of Dice. The more the Better.
You start with 0 Residents and 0 Jobs. But a Budget of 100 Coins. For Setup, you need to draw an Electric Tower and a Water Tower on the Last Row and Column.
Let’s start with Day 1. For the First Day, you skip Nr. 2-5 and Start with Building.
I decided to start Building a Resident Area, a Commercial Area, and a Fire Department. Cost of 60 Gold and different Times when Finished.
Now for the next day. What threat did we get?
6 – A Water Leak. Roll a 9 or Lose 4 Money for fixing the Tower. We rolled a 6+3 – That was Close.
We finished the Residential area. I decided on a 2-Money Rent so we can roll 2 Dice for Residents. So we now have 6 Residents, and we collect 12 Rent, but, they do not have Jobs yet, so we will collect 1 Money Less for Rent. The Commercial Area will be finished next turn and the Fire Department in 2 Days.
We have 40 Dollars. Let’s spend 20 for another Commercial Area.
Now we can collect the first Rent. 12 Dollar in our Budget. -1 because of the Job Situation.
Day 3.
Threat 5 – No Electric – Roll a 0 or Lose 4 Money to Fixing the Tower. 6+4. Oh Yes…
We finished the first Commercial Area. I decided to Roll also for a 2-Money Building. Uh, only 2 + 2 4 Sales for 2 so 8.
I want to wait before building another Building. I only have 31 Dollars. I want to build a Police Station next and that cost 30 to build. I forgot to pay the Dollar for the Residential Area. so I only have 30 now.
Day 4
6 – Again the Water Tower Threat. 5+3 nooo. we lose 4 Dollars.
But we can now finish up the Fire Station and another Commercial Area.
The Fire Station gives us a d6 to a Threat Roll that involves Fire. For the Commercial, let’s make a bigger Mall, that has only 1 Sale but 3 Dice for Jobs. 5+2+1 – That was a bit unfortunate. So 8 Jobs more and we will have enough for the Residents.
I want to build a Police Department. next to the Fire Station. And 1 Residential Area. Now we can collect 28 Dollars, we have to pay 4 of them
Day 5
5 – No Electric Tower We have the Fire Department, so we can Roll with 3 Dice to get a 9. 6+3+3. Nothing happens.
We are finishing the Residential Area. I want it to be a Fancy Neighbourhood so we are going to collect 3 Dollars but we can only roll 1 Dice. Only 2 People are moving in.
I want to build a Park to attract more People. And let’s finish that Day up.
Day 6
4 – Fire Industrial Area but with Fire Department. 6+5+2 – Nothing happens.
I want to build a Hospital. That gives us a d6 for our Dice Pool that we can use whenever we want. And another Residential Area for 10.
Now we collect some Rent. Thank you very much.
Day 7
1 – Strike – 5+5 – The Strike does not happen. That was close.
We finished the Park, so now we have 2 more Residents in each Building adjacent to it. + Another Building. I want a 2-Money Building. 3+2=5+2 for the Park 7 Residents. So we have 19 Residents. 42 Rent Dollars. + the Sales Money of 16 gives us 58 Income each Turn. And, with the now-built Fire Department, we have the First of 10 Milestones completed.
Summary
This was the First Week of the Game up to our First Milestone.
If you have any questions about it, feel free to ask in the Comments down below.
I decided to change up 2 Rules after this Gameplay. Every Building that you Build will cost 2 Money each Turn. It was a bit too low with just 1. And you start with 1 Residential and 1 Commercial Building.
Hope you like the Game and I wish you a great Day.
