Description

Like most infants, baby dragons hate going to bed! But now Mumma Dragon has declared it bed time and the dragons haven't got their hoards in order. They'll need to scramble as fast as they can to grab the gold and go to sleep, while making sure they get more gold than their siblings!

Baby Dragon Bedtime is the world's first real-time deckbuilder. Players all act at once to move through their decks to find cards that let them peek at the cards face down on the table and then pull them into their hand - assuming they are valuable gold of course and not dustbunnies!

Play takes only about a minute but players have been known to play for hours. And it makes a great family game as kids and adults can play together.

72 cards plus rules.

Quotes (from this video)
  • Relics is my RPG about angels and demons you play angels who have fallen to earth mixing with the humans but trying to solve mysteries as well unlocked secret powers save the world maybe
  • we use the tarot deck instead of our instead of dice gives us a more simple system it also allows us to use the symbology of the Tarot as part of the mechanics of the game because there's a lot of angelic symbols that are in the tower and it means you have a different kind of tenor and tempo as the game goes along
  • the main thing is just based around using those tarot cards we have a simple system which is just revealing to see if you succeed or not and then we have a blackjack mechanic for more complex but can't arm fights if you want to use that and we also have a system are based on memories because the Angels have been on earth for hundreds of thousands of years they can't have a skill list so whenever you need a skill you actually have a flashback to when you learnt that skill in the past and that allows us to model the fact that angels are very old but it also allows us to discover more and more about the Angels history as they go along in time
  • so you start the game not knowing everything about yourself although your character does but you as the audience and find out more and more as time goes on so that means you're not always a reliable narrator about your game and it creates a very different experience and a shared experience because other people are also adding memories of you so when you need a skill not only do you have a flash but someone else describes their memory of you so you lose a little bit of creative control but you have a whole new revelation of who your character really is
  • it's a fast-paced card snatching game which you can get over the Centennial booth we're hoping to do a full a bigger launch of that soon we're gonna get a lot more copies into the country so if you like baby dragons that's also a great game for you
