Kickstarter Project: Egyptian Rat Slap

0

A “slap-jack” style card-game with changing rule-sets based on skill level.

Let’s help strengthen families together!
My goal is to strengthen relationships between families and friends, cut down screen time and help people create new memories that will last for a lifetime. Anyone who donates can be a part of this great cause.
Everyone who donates Tier 2 or above will have the option to receive a second copy of ERS. Either shipped directly to them to share with someone they know or allow me to give the second copy, in your name, to another family or Charity organization in need.


Please donate and help me reach my goal of giving 1000 families a copy of ERS to help strengthen their own familial and friendly relationships.

Egyptian Rat Slap is a 2-6+ player slap-jack-like card game with different rule sets depending on how skilled you are. It’s a fast-paced, game, that will leave you wanting to play “just one more round.”
Let’s begin …
The first player to have all the cards and unite the kingdoms wins!
Shuffle and deal the entire deck out to all players.

The player on the dealer’s left starts by placing their top card into the population pile. The next player, in turn, does the same until someone plays a Royal Power Card or a Slap Rule is triggered.

PLAYING ROYAL POWER CARDS (RPC’s)

There are five sets of Royal power cards. When playing these cards, take control of the population pile by exerting their authority. Once a player plays an RPC, the next player has only a certain number of chances to challenge the RPC in play or trigger a slap rule to win the population pile. Each RPC shows the number of chances the next player gets in the form of a dash under the G, K, Q, H. (Guardian 1, King 2, Queen 3, Heir 4).

TRIGGERING A SLAP RULE

When a slap rule is triggered everyone playing has the opportunity to slap the population pile and win the cards beneath.
There are two ways to trigger a slap rule in Egyptian Rat Slap: Doubles is first when two players play the same level card in the population pile.

The second is when you have a “Sandwich” this happens when players play the same level card with another different card in between.

The Egyptian Diety of war, chaos, and storms — Seth, has come to throw you off your game. Seth adds his cards, creating insta-slap cards, stopping RPC’s, skipping players, reversing gameplay, and even eliminating card piles outright from the game.

LET THE SLAPPING BEGIN!
In Honor of Family, Friends, and Game. Use your RPC’s and slap your way to victory to be crowned Pharaoh over your Egyptian rat empire! Enjoy your victory now because everything will change when the Cats come to claim their throne … New game/Expansion to come.

Hi, my name is Alan.
As I mentioned already, I am a single parent from Utah who dreams of leaving this world a slightly better place than I found it. Specifically, around wherever you play your card games. Relationships are essential to me, as I’m sure they are to you too.


In these crazy times we all find ourselves in, keeping and strengthening relationships with the people closest to us is more critical than ever. And what a great way to do that while playing fun games everyone can enjoy together.

Being a single parent is never easy, especially when keeping the kids entertained. My kiddos were my inspiration to make this game. They are still young, and I wanted to create something just as fun for them and me. There are only so many times you can play certain kid-friendly games (you know the ones I’m talking about) and not want to pull your hair out.
I also wanted to create something that would encourage people to smile, laugh, and genuinely bond with one another. With Egyptian Rat Slap, I did just that. I took a game that I loved and created something new. It’s a game that my family and friends love, and I hope you and yours will love it too!

Lastly, I wanted to make something my kids would grow into, something we could bond over for years to come — this game that is a gift from their Daddy.
With my first goal completed, my next goal is to share it with those who would like to help build and fortify friend and family relationships or, in other words, YOU!

With so much going on in our lives, creating and building positive relationships with friends and family are more important now than ever before! I hope this game can be a new go-to activity for your friends and family in the years to come. It’s easy to learn, fun to play, and will leave you wanting “just one more round.”

On top of that, I want to involve you in our cause. For those who donate Tier 2 and above, as already mentioned, we will send you another copy to share with a family you know or we will take that copy (if you don’t know anyone) and share it with a family or charity in need.

Please support and share this campaign with others to help me support my cause to strengthen the family. Any leftover funds will be used to help build my small business and create more fun games to come.

Let’s do this together –In Honor of FAMILY, FRIENDS, and GAME!

Sincerely,

Alan
