THE REALMS OF BILLY
The rock that holds down the fabric of the realms, The universal paperweight, has become cracked, and Blorgstal is unravelling. There is a prophecy that one tribe will produce someone so powerful they wrangle the ends of the realm fabric and tie them to their mighty belt, becoming the new universal paperweight, and their name is Billy.
It is written upon the stone that Billy will be a William.
The Williams are a gifted few who are able to influence the world through magic, but only one tribe can claim to possess the true Billy by defeating Williams from all other tribes.
‘The Realms of Billy’ takes place as a war has broken out between two rival tribes. Divided into these two tribes, your party must battle head to head, using your wit, cunning and teamwork to defeat your rivals and become BILLY.

Stages of Development
The Inspiration
Having played our fair share of card games, we started by discussing what we loved and what we didn't about some of our favourite properties.
The Design
Once we had our vision for the core mechanics, it was time to design the cards, the lanes, and a score counter. Thank you, Canva.
The Protoype
Once we had designs for everything mocked up, we printed everything off and made sure it was legible and cohesive
The 'Friends' Test
Our first ever play-test was an unsuspecting group of friends. It was a great chance to see how it handles in the hands of both the overly competitive and the serial cheaters.
The First Patch
After weeding out the broken cards and the boring bits, we returned to our designs to tweak the abilities and mechanics to start balancing.
