Is there any board game ones?
I can think of lots where people get taken into a video game but I can’t think of many for board games. (No game no life?)
None come to mind but how many classic board game have any lore that could be used as a setting? Maybe something like Alice in Wonderland based on cards?
That is already a manga. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_in_Borderland
Almost the exact same concept. Have you been stealing other peoples ideas again?
Pokémon / yu-hi-oh cards - surely there’s some lore behind them that could be used…
I haven’t read no game no life but the end game seems to be the world is a giant chess board? (Highschool DxD aswell?)
Snakes and ladders - as a dungeon exploration?
risk - as a historic war
poker - as a gambling setting? (Kakegurui [manga] / Kaiji [Manga]?)
game of life - every month the gods roll a dice to decide your fate
monopoly - following rich people as they battle to take over a city? Or real estate agents? (Dragon goes house hunting [manga] / rpg real estate [manga])
Snap - twins are seperated and put into a death match. The first twins to reunite and make it to the exit win.
Note - I haven’t actually read any of the mentioned manga so I am not sure how accurate they are.
Time for a Jumanji adaptation!
