Ashes and Cinders

December 3rd, 2020, The world has been at war for three months and the nations have launched several nukes across the globe. Several have hit major continents and cities in every country and some splashed in the water. You were fortunate but yet unfortunate, you were in Hawaii during this time and two of the nukes landed in the water causing there to be major damage from tsunamis, wind and radioactive storms. It has been over a month since that incident and there has been no aid or relief to the isles. You have heard from your trusty radio that you scavenged from the disaster that there are shelters in California. BEWARE! The local wildlife have shown signs of mutation and now you must collect food, find a way off the island and get to safety before it is too late

PLAYERS

2-4 Players

Resources

The required resources to play the game is a di, paper and pencil, the board, the player pieces and chance cards.

(All recourses except the dice are printable in the files. Since this is the prototype of a game myself and my group made the board and pieces are not pretty)

Objective

In Ashes & Cinders, players must survive the harsh land of Hawai’i after a nuclear war. Players must gain enough rations to let them onto the boat off the island that is headed towards California. You will face challenges that you must overcome and also encounter things to help you on your journey to the boat. You must have 50 rations each to get in the boat, the boat holds 2 players. The player('s) that get to the boat win.

Setup

Write down each player's name on a piece of paper to keep track of rations. Cut out chance cards. Create a pile for the chance cards so that you can draw from the pile.

Rules

Players will start on the pink space.

Players will roll a di in order to determine the amount of spaces they move.

If you land on a blue space you gain 3 rations.

Players must take turns rolling the dice to move their piece, if they land on a chance space they must pick up a chance card (red spaces).

Each player loses a ration after each player has taken their round of turns.

Win/Loose Conditions

You win the game once you reach the boat space successfully after gathering the necessary supplies. You lose if you run out of supplies on your way to the boat.
