Perspectives in Play

While studying complex systems is often daunting, discovering them via a game is something else entirely, encouraging role play, exploration and even changing points of view. Games foster collaboration, as well as a competitive spirit.

With this project, funded by the German Federal Foreign Office, the Industrial Design students at the University of Wuppertal developed a series of board games – each focused on teaching one aspect of foreign policy.

All games can be downloaded as »print-and-play« variants from the project website. The students also published the source files of their projects under a Creative Commons (CC-BY-SA 4.0) license.
