Description

Nowadays more and more children are isolating themselves and spending time playing computer games, which may lead to issues with aggression and interpersonal contacts. The “Wanderlust” board game makes it easier for children to give up the computer and encourages them to explore the real world. The main goal of the project is to encourage children to break down barriers, seek adventures, overcome obstacles and fear of the new unknown.

The design process comprised collecting data and information about the problem, making mood boards to define the style and colors, creating the scheme of a multi-level board and making a prototype, making hand-drawn sketches of the game board and sketches of the characters, digital creation of all elements in the Adobe Illustrator, consultation with printing houses and final printout.

The target audience is children with a passion for wandering, who long for distant worlds and wish to explore new lands.
