📖 About This Game
Imagine if you could embody a hero character with the power to challenge or otherwise embarrass your friends. But be careful, for those same friends wield powerful item cards that threaten to change the game at any moment! Now combine this with a leveling system to keep it competitive and a damage system to make it vindictive and this is BaRPiG - The unholy result of a one night stand between card-based role-playing games and a mostly ridiculous party.
Gameplay takes place in two alternating rounds: The Challenge Round, followed by the Market Round. During the Challenge round, players compete through challenge, gaining and losing "Drink" and "Sober" points. During the Challenge round, whenever you lose Drink points, take that many ‘drinks’ (eg: sips) from your beverage. If you gain Drink points, you get to choose another player to take that many ‘drinks’. During the Market round, players buy Items from the market - as long as they have enough in their Bar Tab to cover it. They can also recharge their Bar Tab.
Rounds continue until the first player reaches Level 5 on the their Level card and Wins!
