Success! (2018)
Stacking board game![](https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f80dd998b05f0537677ccd157bc09b48c0c91bdf2f7df717a20bfc098cb1bc86/success.jpg)
I designed and created ‘Success!’, a stacking board game which aimed to illustrate the futility of the pursuit of materialistic success. Players pick a card from the deck which determines which type of block they pick up. Materialistic ideas of success are paired with the difficult-to-stack blocks, and healthier ideas of success are paired with the easy-to-stack blocks. The game is won by stacking 9 blocks and is nearly impossible to win.
I handmade the wooden blocks in UAL’s wood workshop and designed the graphic elements on Adobe Illustrator.
