We've changed the game significantly, and are now play-testing it actively. Follow us on twitter to get updates on upcoming playtest sessions!
The augmented reality video game that brings people together to play in a new way of board game fun.
What is CARTONEROS®?
CARTONEROS® is a tactical strategy game. Players clean the environment together and compete over who collects the most cardboard.
Players control groups of waste pickers, otherwise known as Cartoneros. Your primary goal is to collect cardboard.
In a game you need to explore the map, evaluate the situation and give simple commands to your characters.
Between games, you spend your cardboard to rebuild your team and equip characters with weapons & items.
If you lost many Cartoneros in combat, to play the next game you'll have to spend a lot of cardboard to build new ones.
You need to be efficient and collect more than you spend. Only then you'll rise in the leaderboards and be the real winner.
The game world is built out of cardboard. The cardboard you collect is trash that careless people of this world threw away.
Cartoneros understand the value of recycling. You drive the recovery of the environment and the society - and SAVE THE WORLD.
What is boARd™?
boARd is a paper map. It's an augmented reality marker you can use to play the game on mobile devices.
The game boARd is made out of square tiles that you fold out to form the play area.
You run the game on your mobile device and navigate the view moving your device in your hands around the boARd.
boARd gives you super intuitive motion controls that young children understand even better than touch controls.
The most unique thing about boARd is that it gives you a large space, that multiple players can use together.
You, your friends & family gather around the boARd and play a video game just like a traditional board game. You interact face-to-face.
With a boARd you can escape the isolation that came with online games & bring your friends and family together (using video games).
Cartoneros is about recovering the environment and the society in the game, but with boARd it's also about recovering our own community - let's bring back LOCAL MULTIPLAYER.
We want to include you in the development, so this idea is reflected in how we make the game!
