Table Top Games (2015-2019)
This is a collection of all the analogue games I created while at UCLA. 
Hive Jive
Hive Jive was a cooperative board game based off Pacman in which 2-4 people played as bees attempting to sting an npc beekeeper without being caught themselves.
Wallachia
Wallachia was an assymetrical game about the Night Attack on Târgoviște and invasion of Romania by the Ottomans which pit two players, Mehmed the Conqueror and Vlad the Impaler, against one another. Mehmed must capture territory with his catapult and avoid obstacles to subdue Vlad and conquer Romania, while Vlad must attempt to fortify his territory and starve his opponent out or drive him mad.
Mleko a Míod
Mleko a Míod is a Powered By The Apocalypse tabletop RPG in which players can experience a world of Jewish folklore and mysticism.

Custom Die and Stamp
The prototype die pictured below is 22-sided and has all the letters of the Hebrew alphabet. The die is used when players are acquiring spells for their lexicon, which all correspond to two-letter Hebrew words.
The World
The game is set in a fictional continent with nations based on those late 19th century European countries. Players may be from any of the above nations, but the nation they choose to begin in helps the GM to establish ambiance and the way in which players are received.
Spell System
Magic in this game can be used by all classes, but the number of spell slots allowed differs. Spells are cast with a normal ability (2xd6) roll, but are found through 2 rolls of the aleph-bet die (22-sided die pictured above). If this combo makes a word in the GM's index, the player may add it to one of the spots in their lexicon and must interpret (with the GM's approval) what the word does.
Industries
Industries are the classes of this game. They determine moves, skill levels, and number of spell slots.
Creatures
Creatures are another major addition in this mod. They're based on Jewish and Eastern/Central European (mostly czech) folklore and have stats should players wish to attempt to co-opt them into the party.
