Description Edit | History

Jasper and Zot is a one player game about two old, feuding wizards. The White Mage Jasper is quite the famous gardener and his pumpkins always win the blue ribbon at the local faire. His long-time adversary and neighbor, Zot the Necromancer, who is not good at growing living things, has summoned an army of the undead to smash all of Jasper's prize-winning pumpkins. Help Jasper defend his pumpkins from Zot's shambling minions by turning them into delicate white flowers and then burning them to ash.

Game play borrows heavily from classic arcade games such as Space Invaders and Puyo Pop. The player moves Jasper horizontally along the garden path while casting spells to either transform the approaching zombies into flowers or ignite those flowers and any nearby zombies with magical fire. The more you destroy with a single spell, the more points you earn. If the player can survive both waves of Zot's undead army, he wins the game and tallies his score.

Jasper and Zot won first place in the one full-sheet label game design contest here on BGG.

49 Jasper and Zot - 19mm tiles
Full color board and tiles sized to work with 19mm wooden tiles (such as those in Scrabble) v2 With some great feedback from Karl Keddington (Wicked_K), I added more flower tiles and the score sheet to the final page. Karl suggests putting the extra flower stickers on the reverse side of the zombie tiles so that a player can easily flip the tiles when vanquishing the undead.
