WAKE UP

Board Game

This board game is my diplome project, based on the simplified world of the story

of Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Caroll.

VISUAL IDENTITY

For the visual identity of the game I created a simple, unified world, which resembles the mood of the story but differs from

it's usual visualisation. The amorphous shape of the logo and the board of the game symbolize the hole into which Alice fell.

Wake up

THE GAME

The board of the game is a map with the stations Alice goes through in the story. This board is a metalic slab onto which magnets can be placed. The amorphous shape of the map also symbolizes the hole. The map has three levels; by playing the game the characters get deeper and deeper in the hole. The game ends when they wake up.

The game uses four characters from the book: Alice, the Queen, the Cat, and the Mad Hatter. Every player gets one of each character.

The aim of the game is to lead the pieces to the finish line. Onto the board magnetic texts can be placed serving as fields. Each field has a different meaning and instruction; the positive fields help the pieces get to the finish line, the negative fields withhold them. During the game the fields can be interchanged according to the instructions, so the players can place the positive fields in front of their pieces and the negative ones in front of the enemies' pieces.
