What’s in a board game?
In general, a board game can be considered to have 6 areas to consider:
-
The subject of the game
-
The graphic content and game pieces
-
The active elements
-
The rules
-
The winning conditions
-
The players and their interactions
It is important to remember that a board game, especially a physical one, is experiential and immersive. Players interact with the game and each other, using sight, touch, hearing, and emotion. All of this leads to a shared, highly memorable experience.
Our games leverage every aspect of a board game to deliver a meaningful and enjoyable learning experience that delivers real-world benefits.


What makes our games special?
We carefully design every game area to deliver real value to your organisation.
The subject of our board games - ITSM
This provides the theme, context, and scenario. All our games are set in the world of IT service management. We make sure that this is easy to understand and relate to, being based on real-world situations that may often be familiar to our players. So, the games reflect something the players will often encounter in their daily work.
Graphic content and game pieces
These reinforce the subject of the game and, beyond that, we have ensured that they are consistent across our games. This makes it easy to understand that each game is part of a greater whole and how the various scenarios complement each other.

Active elements of the board games
The active elements represent the items with which you directly interact in the game. These are the items you are trying to control, plan, or manage such as incidents, capacity, improvements, integrations, and resources. These are direct representations of real-world elements and, where possible, we strive to use ITIL terminology and definition.
The game rules
The rules define the player behaviour and, by extension, reflect a corporate culture. Our game rules support a generalised corporate culture based on:
-
value-driven, holistic mindset
-
holistic, strategic thinking
-
creative experimentation
-
agile, incremental improvement
-
personal interaction
If required, the rules can be adapted to vary the required behaviour to better align with a specific corporate culture.


The winning conditions
The winning conditions, encapsulate what it takes to succeed. The vision of success within a game aligns with practical success in the real-world. As with the rules, these can be modified to reflect a specific goal for a given session.
The players
Last but by no means least are the players themselves. The games encourage the development of many soft skills including communication, negotiation, planning, team-work, adaptability, and more.
