Which Monster will Steal Dracula's Amulet and Become the King of the Night?!
The concept of my board game that I have chosen has changed a tad from my original ideas, but I wanted to keep the classic movie monster theme from my earlier concepts. Basically, the idea is to play as one of the four different monsters that player can choose from and using cards that are given to you at the start and are received each turn to traverse Dracula's Castle to find and obtain his all powerful crystal, and then to exit the board without anyone stealing it from you using their cards.
As mentioned before, this game takes place in Dracula's castle which is located on the border of Transylvania and Wallachia in Romania and is actually called the Bran Castle in real life. The novel Dracula has the date that the novel takes place is in the 1890s, which is the time frame that I will will be using for my board game as well. The board, box, and cards will be decorated with the artistic aesthetic of the time, as well as the board being illustrated as Dracula's Castle and having the style and color scheme of this time frame.




I want to go into a more cartoony style with this game, referencing to Luigi's Mansion 2: Dark Moon and Hotel Transylvania for reference for an appealing cartoon style for classic movie monsters and environments. I want to create something that looks fun and whimsical, but still keep it relatively "spooky" for children, as I want this games demographic to be for Families or a groups of children/teenagers to play. I want my color palette to have lots of purples, reds, and yellows/oranges for contrast. This give the board nice color language that adds to the spooky flair.
