INSPIRATION

The game aims to inspire the players, in this case the clients and the school, to engage in a productive dialog about how a project goes. Carton Camel strives to provide a tool for its players and potential clients that let's them experience how it is to be in a project where you have constantly to fight against the deadline and always keep in mind that the next step can be the last one. The players of the game will get to know each other and learn how a project functions through the game. Hopefully it will provide meaningful discussion about their actual work.

INSPIRATION

The board game ‘HexiGo’ is more than just a game for entertainment. It plays as an educational tool, engaging with the serious topic of managing a successful project through a playful attitude. Once the players start engaging with the game, they will learn that there is more than simply throwing a dice or moving tiles on the board. A discussion about what the players want from the project becomes a cornerstone for discussion and while playing the game, the serious talk is taking place as well. Combining fun and seriousness, ‘HexiGo’ aims to provide a balanced tool for educational purpose.

INSPIRATION

Not like most other board games, ‘HexiGo’ is a collaborative game. In it, it is not important to destroy your opponent or to win as much points as possible but to collaborate as a team to achieve a common goal. Individual actions, without the consent from other players will lead only to negativety in the game. Players must communicate between each other in each turn to determine what is the best strategy to have a successful project as an end result. As in real life, if there is no collaboration, no fruitful results will come out of it. Therefore, ‘HexiGo’ aims to promote collaborative spirit as a main focus in the game and provide a visual tool of how team effort can pay off in the end.
