'Bansan' is a board game that create a platform for more diverse groups of people to engage deeply in the local culture.
Intersecting roadsBansanEach of the five members have carved out names for themselves on the homegrown scene and collectively have experience working in different art, culture, heritage preservation and education fields.Now, at least four of them have the production of two local board games under their belts.
“At the time, we wanted to make the shift from just general topics like traditional clothing and traditional trades to using a specific site as a boundary,” says Chen. Both Goh and Loke led several workshops each over the years, exploring topics like the fruit supply chain, waste management, ergonomics and market management through the lenses of photography, stop motion animation, and board game design.
From happenings like a culinary trendologist coming to visit to fogging and the celebration of the Nine Emperor Gods and Navaratri festivals , “Event” cards throw spanners into the works and leave market vendors scrambling for solutions – just like in real life. Loke says the starting point was undoubtedly research – visiting markets, taking lots of photos, making sketches, paying close attention to how stalls were set up, what containers were normally used and how things were arranged.Not wanting to generate more waste, Loke went around collecting everything from discarded chicken heads and fish tails to pieces of tofu and stray spices.
“The art for the whole game was a mix of digital illustration and printmaking where the very physical, tactile nature of printmaking met the very fluid, changeable nature of digital work,” says Loke. Visitors to the historic city will be among the first to get to play the game as well as try out printmaking at theFor the team, getting to see people play the game will be a wonderful ending to the production journey that saw multiple challenges.
