Games we played • Tangram • Bendominoes • Katamino • Gobblet • Blokus 3D Yay!
Tangram • Seven flat shapes, called tans, which are put together to form shapes. • The objective of the puzzle is to form a specific shape (given only an outline or silhouette) using all seven pieces, which may not overlap. Yay!
Tangram Strengths: • 1. Stimulates the mind. • 2. Two sets available and can be used by 2 players. • 3. Increases creativity, very open-ended and can be made into anything! • 4. Self-explanatory game. (Put pieces together to form any shape you want) Weaknesses: • 1.Small parts which tend to get lost! • 2. Lack of certain instructions to start off. • 3. Maximum of 2 players can play with it. • 4. Interaction limited. Yay!
Opportunities: • 1. Can be made into a timed game to increase the competitive atmosphere. • The game can be made into a digital version by having atouch screen provided by parts of the tangram puzzle(tans), and they can be moved about (rotated) to fit into a workspace. To make it easier, an outline of the final figure can be provided to help with visualization. Yay!
Blokus 3D • A game that can be played by 2-4 players. • The goal of the game is to end with maximum number of blocks visible from above. Yay!
Blokus 3D Strengths : • Engaging and interesting. • Helps one learn different strategies. Weaknesses : • Rules are not clear which makes it hard to understand at the start. Yay!
Opportunities : • Computerized version will be really interesting Threats : • Possibility of playing the game forever without actually using the correct rules. Yay!
Bendominoes • Tabletop strategy game, similar to dominoes. • It is a set of double-6 dominoes with a 120-degree curve. • The main difference from dominoes is the curved shape of the pieces, which introduces a new level of strategy to the game Yay!
Bendominoes Strengths • Simple and fun. • Could be played by any age group Weakness • The person who is starting always seems to win(which is always the youngest person). Yay!
Opportunities • The game pieces are designed in a such a way to prevent a circular arrangement • deadlock situation. • There is a potential for algorithms in deadlock prevention to be used for the design of this game Yay!
Tanglus for Now. Yay!
Inspired by: • Blokus: 3 dimensional • Tangram: A defined shape and the shapes of the pieces. • Bendominoes: Each player has 7 pieces, can exchange pieces if he runs out. Yay!
Rules of the game: • Pieces are 3D • 4 sets of different colours, with 3D shapes • Pre-defined puzzle pieces. • Aim: To complete the shape in 3D. • Winner: The player with most number of inputs wins. Yay!
Digitization • Basic component: Six face LED display block. • Hard to design. • Won’t get feel of components. Yay!
Lan party • 2-4 players connect using LAN. • Player can view only his pieces. • Each player can see others’ moves. • Common gui will be as shown. Yay!
Domain Applications • Education- to help kids learn shapes and geometry(angles et al)! • Health- to aid in visual development in Alzheimer’s disesase patients. • Emotional wellness- hopefully, it’ll make you happy! =) Yay!
