The team felt really strongly about not wanting to over complicate the game so we decided on going with a set path board. Even though I really like the open board idea, a set path will make it a lot more simpler to understand but what I really didn't want to use was dice to determine how many steps the player's pieces moved. What I decided to do was to add different paths which you could go down, and also add turn tables that could be used to sabotage other players to slow them down by making them go back around a short distance.
After having shown people my sketches their feedback was that the turn tables reminded them of a board game called 'The game of life.' After being told this I researched it using the google search engine on the Internet.
