      I've been feeling burnt out on boardgame design for a while, but @buttonshy 's 18 card worker placement challenge got my cogs turning because it's so limited! Trying a new approach: starting from a "screenshot" of what the game might look like when playing.pic.twitter.com/VfA1PyRpoB

      First playtest! I had to change a few things to add variability and allow for multiple paths. The core system works but the actions and economy need another pass. Took exactly one hour, which felt too long.pic.twitter.com/PBsV3SzQcq

      I printed the cards and had the deck ready for my game, but then @botteu put them into tabletopia for a test. The game 'worked', but needs tweaks. More or less as expected. Ours was also too long, which surprised me.

      I opted for picking up action cards rather than placing worker cards, as per the bgg definition of action bidding, to get more cards for 'content'. Doesn't quite feel like worker placement though..

      At first I was trying to think outside the box but eventually it didn't feel like worker placement at all so I re-read the rules and decided to start with something closer to the tried and true formula, then add some wrinkles. This playtest validated that.

      But I get the logic behind yours, I had a sketch like that. Since worker placement ends up being action drafting, that would fit the definition but if they're resolved immediately there is a risk of missing the predefined sequence of actions that is traditionally very important.
