September 2024 Meeting – Welcome to Serconea

Today’s meeting at Anerley Methodist Church saw four attendees. Unfortunately only one of the two sessions could go ahead due to a short-notice absence on the part of Jim Wallman.

This session was a design session where I presented the basic concept for my in-development megagame of democratic transition, Welcome to Serconea. This game tells with an island nation that has just undergone a revolution. Now it has to deal with a large number of challenges under a transitional government filled with inexperienced politicians.

The basic concept document is here.

However, in light of the excellent feedback I received today, I will be making some major changes to the concept. In addition, I am designing a core game mechanic called Committee of National Salvation.
