Rick, you seem to love challenges. How about this one? I challenge you to create a variant of Alamaze designed as an Anonymous game!

Please do not take any of my comments as a personal insult or as a criticism of the game 'Alamaze', which I very much enjoy. Rather, I hope that my personal insight and unique perspective may, in some way, help make 'Alamaze' more fun, a more successful financial venture, or simply more sustainable as a long-term project. Anyone who reads this post should feel completely free to ignore, disregard, scorn, implement, improve, dispute, or otherwise comment upon its content.

What would that be?  More constrictive for sure.  No Halflings, Underworld, Ancient Ones.  I have admitted for The Gray Mouser he is not a great diplomat, but my dealio has been multi-player strategy driven from sources like AD&D, Diplomacy, Axis & Allies (just a couple years before Alamaze). 

I would like to get back to the board game design although I think the company has probably given up on me at this point.  It would just be cool and I think you guys would like it.  It also forces me to simplify things which I am convinced I need to do for Kingdoms of Arcania to get potentially to main stream. 

Again, I am happy for first Phil's wife and son Patrick giving me Alamaze back, then David Pitzel bringing it back to life, and then obviously all the stuff Mike has done.  And the volunteers like Frost Lord and Diamond. 

Bring your friends.  Teach them through a Duel game.
