So, let's name them and explain it in detail as quickly as possible!
Hopefully, this will give you more knowledge about Gaming and how it can be implemented.
But in order, to understand it you need to play games online. Do you know games these days are not used for playing but to understand the concept better.
oooh! oops! I am just drifting away from the topic!
Themes! Themes of Gaming โ Let's look at Globally recognised themes! There must be many Themes- But currently we are just looking at Board games!
Themes in Board Games are as follows:
- Abstract
- Adventure
- Animals
- Aviation
- Building
- Conquest
- Economy
- Espionage
- Exploration
- Fantasy
- Food
- Historical
- Science Fiction
- Sport
- Surreal/Silly/Absurd
- Trains
- WarGames
- Western
These are a few examples and let's define each one of them in a one liner with a few examples.( Let's do that in the coming articles).
But before, we get to the conclusion of explaining themes in detail. Let's look at
What are board games? ( how do we really define board games)
How are board games really played?
Which kind of board games would you be interested in these are the few questions?
We need to ask ourselves these questions before playing games!
- Board games are just table- top games ( and there is a seperate definition for table top games too) or under the bucket of table top games we have board games.
- Not all table top games are board games, not all board games are table โ top games too( This is a really confusing statement).
- Board games use small pieces are moved on a pre- marked board that includes elements of a table, cards role-playing and other miniature games.
So, we can take an example of playing monopoly or a Business Game!
- What are the challenges in the game?
- Which part of the board allows us to get a more earning?( Money)
- Where is the board game making us just remain in one place on the board?
- When can you escape the prison and with what throw of the dice is the game going to be a game changer?
Rest of the information will be shared in the next article!
