Boardgames

Introduction

In this section, you will find boardgames, both traditional and modern, to print, assemble and play. In some cases, you'll have to improvise some material. In others, you'll only need paper, glue and scissors.

Considering the extremely high cost of importing those games to Brazil, I have decided to create home-made editions, based on photos, rules and other information found on the Web. Now I share the results of this labor with anyone who live on or wish to enter this fascinating world of games.

General Instructions

1. Chose a game from the list at the end of this page and click on its name.

2. Click on the images of its components to download the bigger version, save and print them. Usually, the board (or its parts) must be printed in full page. Notice that the size of board and pieces may vary on the screen, but you should print them equally wide, unless otherwise instructed.

3. Stick them to cardboard paper and cut out the pieces. Follow the specific assembly instructions on that game's page, when provided.

Recomendations

1. Print everything on full-page labels, which make the sticking job easier. In that case, watch the margins in order not to print outside the cut line.

2. Apply transparent contact paper on both sides for protection against dirt and sweat, specially if you use an inkjet printer. Do it before cutting.
