It’s Your Turn

The objective of this project was to further understand visual perception through the creation of a user-centered design board game. Traditionally, board games are created by first defining the rules and the theme of the game, and the graphics are created secondarily once game play has been established.

The purpose of this study was to manipulate this process by creating the graphics first -with no game play in mind- and having users determine the mechanics and theme themselves. This new process proved to spark the imagination and creativity of all the different test groups, and through multiple sessions, an engaging new board game was created with various levels of complexity.
