DIET ISLAND: PROTOTYPE

THE GAME!

You are washed ashore on a deserted island and must do whatever it takes to survive by developing different types of tools (dice) and gather food But there is a twist.... Whatever food you manage to find in the game is also the only food you’re actually ALLOWED TO EAT in real life as well…

RULES

You get 2 action points each day and can be rewarded a maximum of 2 more points if you go for a  bike ride, go to the gym or take a power-walk. Below are examples of what you can chose to spend your action points on.  All of these actions cost 1 A.P and you need to get 1 category symbol on the dice to succeed your attempt.  If this happens you may draw 1 card from the category pile. The amount of dice you have therefore  increases your chances to succeed greatly. More of the dice symbols still only mean that you get to draw 1 card. This does not include material symbols. 

Here are exempels of what you may chose to spend your A.P on:

• EXPLORING - Find fruit trees, nuts and eggs
• TRAPPING - Trap different types of jungle fauna.
• FARMING - Farm vegetables, beans and lentils. 
• FISHING - Capture fish, shellfish and squid.
• WEAPONS - Improve your fighting odds.
• DISASTER AVOIDANCE - Protect what you have.
• SKILLS - Learn to ferment stuff and extract oil.
• ART & CULTURE - Good things will happen to you..
• TOOLS & weapons - Get even more dice and open new decks! (You are only allowed to upgrade 1 unique tool/weapon category each day)

MONDAY CARDS

Every Monday you must draw a ”Monday card”. This is usually bad news and can hurt you and your camp greatly without the ”disaster avoidance” cards. On the other hand Mondays also mean that you can revisit explored spots and harvest your farm lot ONCE MORE. The first week of the game the monday card is Always "Fauna population + (2 more fishing/trapping dice).

DEATH

If you die in the game you also die in real life. JUST KIDDING!!! If you lose a fight in the game you only lose all the rest of your A.P that day and 1/3 of your cards . You live to see another day.
