Jersey Shore Battle Games (1998)

"The Jersey Shore Battle Games [previously known as the Sandy Hook Battle Games] are a group of simple, easy-to-play miniature battle games developed for one purpose: FUN! Unlike conventional board and miniature games, Jersey Shore Battle Games dispense with complexities altogether. Our goal is to provide a game that can be set up and played spontaneously, without studying complicated rules or spending extra money for expensive miniatures. Everything has to be commonly available."

The components required for play are kite string, two six-sided dice, a sand pail, a cup, a disk segmented into quarters (i.e. lines marked on a paper plate), and the appropriate toy figures.

The basic system rules are available for free.

The following games use the Jersey Shore Battle Games rules system:

• Castle Cracker
• Muskets and Sandpiles
• Operation Sandtrap
• Planetary Sand
• Sahara Sandstorm
• Sandarticus
• Sandpit Showdown
• Tanegashima Sandman
• Treasure of Sandheap
