Ghoul Quest™

how to play

Ghoul Quest is a simple FFXIV board game designed by Haise Sasaki and Xaviell Bloodsworn. 

The game consists of rolling using /dice command in-game and advancing spaces according to what you roll. For example, Rolling a 3 would make you advance 3 spaces, rolling a 9 would make you advance 9 spaces, and rolling a 0 would make you advance 0 spaces. 

Setting up the Game

Playing the Game

    Optional Player Duels: If one player passes another on their turn, they may choose to duel that person.  If the person who initiated the optional duel wins, they receive their points and continue movement and the losing player stays where they are.  If the person who initiated the optional duel loses, they pay the winner and move back one space - triggering any effect they land on as a result.

For example, Player A rolls an 8 and Player B rolls 4 would make Player B pay 4 points to Player A. However, if the player can’t afford the payout, the other player will only receive what can be taken.

Important: It's recommended to use the /dice command in party chat and use voice chat when playing this game. 

Types of Spaces
