Seek the Horizon
Seek the Horizon
Seek the Horizon is a strategic, tile placement, nautical themed board game where players roam the seas to acquire and sell trade goods, hire new crew members, and complete quests to become the best merchant possible!
This project was conceived, designed, and developed by Lucas Townsend as a Div 3 senior project at Hampshire College in spring 2020.
Special thanks and acknowledgements to these people, for which without them this project would not have been possible:
To Daniel Altshuler and Ira Fay, for their constant support for me and this project.
To Walker Perreault and Samuel Fioretti, who spent countless hours playtesting with me.
To everyone else who playtested Seek the Horizon, this game would not be what it is without you.
To Wolfie Smith and Colin Bewley, for their art and media skills and recommendations.
To Walker Perreault, who edited my work throughout development.
To my mother and sister, who provided endless encouragement when times were tough.
and to Hampshire College, for allowing me to direct my own education and work on a project of my own design.
