Game Design (CI7870_A_TB1_22)

In this week we see about the game mechanics and game rules of our board game.

The advantages of my idea are: The map moves.  The car is controlled with a stick. The design looks cool. The disadvantages of my idea are: The game can only be played by one at a time. The maps becomes repetitive. One has to kee...
