SOB, I've been working on my own board game for the past 18 months while my wife supports me and the six kids as a night waitress at Denny's. I call it "Trailer Park Trash" and it's designed to give you an insight into what it means to be Trailer Park Trash in America.
The object of the game is to scam as much money as you can to pay for the essentials in life- beer, wine, pot, cigarettes, TV dinners and Kentucky Fried Chicken- while avoiding squares on the board like the Landlord's Office, where you have to pay rent, or the Sobriety Checkpoint, where you are almost certain to fail and end up in jail.
Of course we also have good squares, too- like the Baby Square, where you get another dependant and get an additional 100 dollars in your Welfare Grant money every time you pass go, or the Recycling Square, where you get to collect all the money the players have paid in fines.
We have cards- some good, some bad. Bad ones? "Tweaker steals your bike, lose one turn," "Pay fifty dollars for daughter's abortion," "You are under arrest for domestic violence, go directly to jail," and my personal favorite, "Wife gives you clap, pay 100 dollars to doctor." Good ones? "Collect fifty dollars for the profit on the ounce of weed you sold," "Wife sleeps with landlord in lieu of rent, collect 200 dollars," or my personal favorite, "your daughter wins first place at the amatuer topless contest. Collect 100 dollars."
I'm getting close to actually marketing this game but I've run short of funding. If any of you would wish to invest 10 thousand dollars toward the launching of Trailer Park Trash I can almost guarantee you a yield of 100 thousand dollars within 3 months of my bank's acceptance of your check. This game will sell like hot cakes.
