“Life is more fun when you play games.”
That’s why for this quest we would like to invite you to test some games and to pay a little bit more attention to the details.
Our project team has created a list of recommended games that you can try by yourself:
- Carcassonne (place tiles)
- Sushi go (drafting, deck building)
- Ciudadelas (drafting)
- Virus (set collection)
- Alakazum (or Magic, or Roam) (deck building)
- Werewolf (hidden roles)
- Age of war, or King of Tokyo (dices to obtain resources)
- Red7 (change victory condition)
- Hanabi (cooperative, communication)
- Pandemic (action points, set collection)
- Magic Maze (no turns cooperative game)
- Exploding Kittens (Push your luck)
Online games:
You can explore the wild lands of board games and find out more about each of the listed games (and more) here.
So here’s your quest!
Assemble a team of adventurers, pick 2-3 games that you have available, either from the provided list or from your personal stash - just make sure they’re all different - and then answer the following questions:
- What is the goal of the game?
- What are the dynamics of the game (patterns of how the game and the players will evolve over time, leading to winning)?
- What are the mechanics of the game (rules that govern and guide the player’s actions and the game’s response to them)?
- What are the rules of the game?
- What’s the theme of the game (where/when the action is taking place)?
- What are the game’s materials or elements (map, cards, dice etc.)?
Tip: To learn more about all these game basics, you can check out our manual here, starting at page 10.
