Project Overview

Inspired by the classic board game of Monopoly, our group strives to create a new, food themed, board game that implements elements of life along with having a unique board that draws players into the game, enhancing the game experience. Even with these innovative features, we aim to keep the feel of Monopoly in the game play, allowing players to buy properties, some of which build upon one another to increase their value.

We are tasked with the job of creating this board game within 10 weeks, having a working model that people can actually play on. Our goal is have a working board game that people of various ages can play without the need of extensive instructions or previous experience with the game and still have fun.

Our board incorporates 3D aspects and a unique second tier that the players can use to dominate the game. We incorporate more of a real world scenario of using a "buy out" feature, where one player can own another player's property by buying it from them for a high cost, but without the consent of the other player. This gives incentive for players to gain a lot of money fast and achieve the goal of the game, which is to completely buy out the competition.
