In a project funded by the German Federal Foreign Office, Industrial Design students at the University of Wuppertal designed board games to foster pupils' interest in foreign policy. All games are open source and freely available as print-and-play PDFs.
Hello!
We're excited to launch Perspectives in Play here on Product Hunt. It's a collection of board games that our team of Industrial Design students at the University of Wuppertal designed in a project that was funded by the German Federal Foreign Office.
The games educate about different political topics, each with a different game mechanic.
All games are available as free print-and-play PDFs.
They were designed with school-friendliness in mind as single-sided, black-and-white prints which can be laminated and reused later.
The students also agreed to publish their (Adobe) source files under an open-source Creative Commons license, to make expansions and translations of the games as easy as possible.
If you have any questions or ideas, please reach out. We're looking forward to hear your opinion!
