Road Hog

Turnpike is the game of highway living. With only your wits, some luck and the will of the road you must outmaneuver your friends and family and get where you are going. This game attempts to capture the rolling shark tank of passive-aggressive driving where hundreds of strangers selfishly jockey for position in an endless race that no one really wins. Rule the Road!

The Long Road to Getting Published
For three years I relentlessly submitted my board game to many international game publishers. After each rejection, I incorporated their feedback and kept honing the game. This involved scores of incremental and iterative prototype designs over the years, each of which had to be rigorously play tested. Inventing a game is about creating an experience that is activated by the players. The game logic, constraints, variables, theme, and visual design all conspire to create the context for play. My work paid off at the when veteran game industry professional Sean Lashgari of Ultra Pro played the game and immediately decided to publish it.
