Energy Empire, the board game on renewable energy
(Written by Editor. Monday, February 15, 2010)
It's called "Energy Empire" the new born in the great family board game, a game of ludo-educational character to explore the world of renewable energy, having fun.
Designed by three young graduates with a passion for scientific communication, "Energy Empire" began as a final project for a master on renewable energy organized by the project - TERS (Talent, Energy, Research, Development, Organization) - AREA Science Park, which was among the main partners. Funded by Foundation for the South within the projects for the development of human capital of excellence, the Master TERS formed fifteen graduates resident in Sardinia region with the aim of countering the "brain drain", to promote enterprise creation and integration organizations in the area.
curiosity, a bit of scientific expertise and at least twelve years of age are the requirements to play "Energy Empire", a game that highlights the positive aspects of sustainable energy and issues relating to their dissemination and their use.
Game goal is to gradually replace the energy produced from fossil fuels with those generated from renewable sources, being always careful to respect the constraints and conditions imposed by the European Union. You can play a minimum of two and a maximum di cinque giocatori. A vincere è chi raggiunge la completa sostenibilità energetica oppure chi rimane in gara per ultimo.
A metà strada tra Monopoli e Trivial Pursuit, “Energy Empire”consta di un tabellone raffigurante l’Europa, su cui sono rappresentate cinque nazioni, pedine di diversa grandezza e forma, carte della Rinnovatività, della Ricerca e delle Domande e un dado a dodici facce.
Al momento sono stati realizzati, a titolo di prototipo e grazie al contributo di AREA, cento esemplari del nuovo gioco da tavolo.
