I've had this idea for a while. It might be a little confusing.
You, along with a bunch of other people, are going into a cave. There are between 10 and 15 levels in each cave. There is an X by Y grid both of which are from 14 to 20 spaces long. Everbody can see, what everbody else can see.
Your goal is to find one of the treasures and bring it back to your base. Then, when everybody goes straight back (they have to) you can go out a certain number of spaces. The player with the most points wins.
You can go up to three spaces in one turn. You can see up to five spaces in any direction, the first four of which you can see left or right on. When you have a 1-point treasure, you can only move two spaces and when you have a 2-point treasure, you can only move one.
If you're next to somebody, you can shove them, however, the direction they wind up moving in is random. Also, if they collect a treasure, you can go to base and kill them. However, this only has 7/16 chance of working. Should it fail, you have to find a hiding spot on the next level, being unable to find any tresure. If you want to avoid getting killed, you can drop the treasure and run back to base. However, if you don't get back to base, your foe kills you on sight, no matter what.
Ex: This is a 3 by 3 grid, between two players. (Don't worry they will be image files for the real deal.)

Alright, I'm currently allowing 5 to 7 people per game. If this gets popular enough, I might run two or three at a time (for each board it will say the game number).
EDIT: I need to know if you won't be able to post within the next two days so I can skip your turn after two days.
