How are you all lately? Every day I hear either reports on the epidemic or a bunch of negative news, ranging from community affairs in Hong Kong to international disputes. The epidemic has reached a peak in the past month or two, making the days when we want to go out and take a breath have become a luxury. We hope to provide happiness to you who are tired of fighting the epidemic in this troubled time, so that you can live a fulfilling life while sitting at home.
In the past, everyone loved playing physical games, but with the development of technology, the public has higher requirements for games, pursuing more exciting and smoother graphics, and more advanced gameplay. Disguised game designers spend a lot of time researching exquisite games. Online play experience. Over time, everyone has focused on online games or mobile games ( I know that in this era when everyone has a smartphone, mobile games are really convenient ), but there are fewer and fewer players playing tabletop games. But do you know that besides your own happiness, what else can you get from board games?
- Easily make interpersonal or parent-child relationships closer
Playing board games is different from other group activities such as shopping and partying. Players must be dedicated and highly concentrated. When everyone plays board games, the focus will be on the game and the players themselves, and they will be less disturbed by the outside world. And generally, board games require two or more players, so board games can definitely help everyone build interpersonal relationships or bring family and friends closer together.
During the game time, everyone had no distracting thoughts and enjoyed the small blessings brought by board games. In particular, parents can get closer to their children through regular parent-child board game sessions, while creating more common topics and building a closer parent-child relationship.
- You will find yourself getting smarter and smarter
As long as you are willing to explore, you will actually find that the world of board games is much bigger than you think! Board game designers around the world design various types of games according to their own ideas, aiming to bring new and interesting experiences to players with different hobbies - some games test our reactions, some exercise our memory, and even It almost tests our creativity ( I once participated in a game that used cards to tell stories, so now my word-building ability has been greatly improved )!
Through continuous playing of the game, you will (maybe) become a beginner who often loses, and eventually understand the essence and strategies of the game, and (maybe) become a master of board games who can win every battle. This is definitely a good growth process. .
- Learn to face winning and losing
In addition to winning or losing the game depending on your own ability or luck, the skills of other players will also affect the development of the entire game. No one is invincible, and no one will always be last in the game. Knowing how to accept winning or losing, adjusting your mentality, and enjoying the process of playing board games is what is really important.
Children who recognize success and failure as early as possible will be healthier for their subsequent personal development. Therefore, parents can vigorously use toys to carry out real-life education so that children can have a good experience in learning.
- Effectively release negative emotions
Both children and adults may have different negative emotions at different times - children may face the pressure of schoolwork or unhappy campus life; adults may face challenges in family, work, finance and other aspects. Although the reasons and experiences of everyone's unhappiness are different, the same thing is that everyone needs to find an outlet to vent. Board games are tools with this magic. In the game, everyone can express themselves freely and release negative emotions.
Although board games may not be able to solve your current difficulties, they can connect players and help them forget their worries for a while.
I believe that as Hong Kong people, we will be able to survive the difficulties of the epidemic, live in the present, and enjoy the dawn after the darkness. Everyone remember to fight against the epidemic and stay healthy!
