my game idea

my game idea is based on the holocaust and the hardship that the people targeted by the Nazis were forced to endure.

the game will start with everyone in berlin, germany and they will have to choose their own route out of the country to safety. the objective of the game is to escape to freedom and the way you win is to escape with more refugees than any of the other players.

during gameplay a player will first roll a pair of dice and move the shown distance on the board. there will be marks on all the different spaces corresponding to different cards, all with different consequences ex) you find a family of refugees and take them with you, you have been found by a Nazi patrol and three of your refugees are killed. Some cards will help and some will impede your progress.

one choice the players will have will be their route to freedom. there will be long and short routes but for each the risk and reward will be different. the shorter routes will allow the player to finish more rapidly and aquire a bonus for escaping the fastest but they will also have many more obstacles and very few safe areas. in comparison the longer routes will take longer but be much safer and less refugees would be killed/lost.

also the different refugees will have different effects on your progress as well. the nazis hated a whole bunch of people so if you have a whole bunch of jews you can hide in a synagogue. same applies for christians and churches. on the other hand the nazis also hated the handicapped so if you have one of them your dice rolls will be lessened thus impedeing your progress.

another thing i'm thinking about is what will happen if you get all your jews killed. an idea is that you just have to start over in berlin with a new group of refugees and try to make it out of the country.

this is just a basic idea so i don't want to hear any complaints about me offending your religion or race or whatever.
