About the project

“As kids, we have all made up an imaginary world we like to live in - from imaginary friends to imaginary pets to an ideal world.”

“Perfect World” is a customisable board game simulating the world scenario from the child’s point of view; Children have an idea of their current world scenario and want to bring a change in them.

The aim of the project is to make an interactive and personalised game for the child using his views on the world, enabling them to voice out their opinions and make rules.

The game uses the theory of prisoner’s dilemma to explore the relationship dynamic and character of the players while playing the game. Here, instead of two players competing against each other, they have an opportunity to collaborate together.
