Steampunk Rally
Steampunk Rally is a strategy game that incorporates steampunk as more than just a bit of chrome. Using a unique dice-placement mechanism; players take on the roles of famous inventors from the turn of the last century like Nikola Tesla and Marie Curie; constructing fantastical contraptions that make use of steam; heat and electricity in an attempt to win a no-holds-barred race through the Swiss alps.
Each round starts with a card draft in which players carefully select machine parts to add to their invention and one-shot boost cards to aid them or hinder opponents. Players also have the option of discarding drafted cards for dice or cogs to power their invention; but they must make this tricky choice when each card is drafted.
Then; after venting dice to revitalize their machines; players roll their dice and use them to activate machine parts which provide things like movement; shielding; and additional dice with which to activate more parts. Driving through terrain causes damage; and if a player's damage gauge ends up in the red at the end of the turn; they must lose parts from their invention. These will need to be replaced in the draft phase; constantly forcing players to discover new synergies.
