A board game is a wondrous accumulation of rules, signs and spatial arrangements. It is an ancient model for the symbolic stylisation of human behaviours. Not only is it an ancient model for the symbolic stylisation of human behaviours, but board games too initiate and stimulate interaction. They call forth a world of their own, regulate the players’ perceptions and behaviour and suggest a scenario within which people can play roles according to their own insights. Therewith it not only intoxicates its players but is its visual language of inspirational value for the typographic mason.
