Shanghai Board Game

On a turn

When all the player reach the top the game ends and you count up the points and who ever has the lowest wins

After each round the pieces are moved up the pagoda

You can take a different path to complete an addition adjective to get rid of points you may have

The next round the dealer shifts to the right and it begins anew

As soon as one person as both the gems and coins values and they put down there cards the round is over

Both is a keyword here

This is where trading comes in

Trading can be done whenever but it makes more sense to do it on your turn

If you have to many or two little you can trade or give to other players

There is no limit on what you can give as long as you agree on it

You also need to get a certain amount of gems and coins to go out

With the remaining cards try to go out

When you put down you combination of run/set you will probably still have some cards left

The item card can be played to take freely or steal from other player

Other Item cards would be take gems/coins

Can only steal once If this was more they would be no progress

Pick up an item card when you pick up a play card

This card shows how many gems or coins you get.

Try to make a run or set with the cards

A Run is the same suit four with four numbers in a row like hearts 5678 And a Set is any suit same number

First pick up a play card

Then the dealer rolls a die to see how many Coins and gems you start with

Everyone's is the same

Before each round you get 11 cards

Pieces

Cards

Two decks

Future deck

2-10 = spider, fusion, virus, DNA Face cards in order = engineer, astronaut, cyborg, thinking machine Joker = Martian Aces = Null for every suit

Ancient deck

2-10 = crop, gunpowder, bronze, Silk Face cards in order = farmer, monk, guard, dynast Joker = Inventor Aces = Seed for every suit

The pieces are as follows sword, gem, robot, drone, compass, crypto

The cards I have not worked out yet

Each card has a suit and Values of gems and coins These are dependant on the card

2-5 = 1G + 6C 6-10 = 2G + 4C Face cards = 3G + 5C Aces = 4G + 1C Jokers = -5G + -5C

Jokers are negitive

Coins and gems represent runs and sets

Run vs sets should be different pieces

Collect them

Movement

Everyone gets a starting piece

Monopoly-esque

Board to play on

Maybe something like Snakes and Ladders

Ups and Downs

Cards are a must

But different then actual playing cards

Themes

The pieces represent the theme

You can diverse from the base path

That path is futuristic China

Each round you climb the levels of an ancient pagoda

Ancient and Futuristic China

Goals

To create a Shanghai like game with more RNG and negotiating

Mechanics

The board

Subtopic

Gem and coin values

Gems are worth 7 and coins are worth 3

Gems and coins

They are the seconday point system/values

Card values

Face cards and tens = 10 Aces = 15 Joker = 25 All other cards = 5

Joker cards

Work as any card in the deck like a wild card

Run is same suit and number sequence eg 7 8 9 10 all diamonds

Suits

Different then standard ones

Have to create them

Must pick up a card at the start of and discard a card at the end

Must get rid all all your cards by putting down

Can go out discarding

This rule is terrible and everyone gets confused if it was can't go out on discard

Eleven Cards at the start of each round

Random Thoughts

I think this will be original enough because I bet no one has played Shanghai before

Point system

Need at least four players

Max six players

Dice could work

Then is it on a board?

How to translate to board game

Runs vs Sets

How you move on in a round

Points

Cards?

Different then playing cards
