There’s an interesting Board Date Project going on BoardGameGeek. The idea is to make a video presentation of your design. Interested publishers then could come and check out the presentation. However, there’s some kind of preliminary pruning based on a prototype picture and few words… and if the first impression is good enough, then you’ll need to make the actual video too. Here’s what I submitted:
- Players: 3 to 5 players
- Playing Time: 20 minutes/game
- Primary Mechanic: Auction: Sealed bid
- Game Type: Competitive
- Audience: Family + (Medium Heavy)
- Youtube description: Put together the best parts from For Sale, Coloretto, and High Society. Add unique twists to the mix: either aim to win the auctions or be the second to last; manage/preserve your bids cleverly as they are combos of two cards. And Staking the Throne is what you get.

Would this pique your interest… or would you move on?
