GAME mechanics

  • Collecting Sets: In Monopoly: Coraline, this mechanic is based on acquiring properties inspired by the Coraline universe. Each set corresponds to a theme from the movie, such as the Pink House, the Garden or the Sewing Room. Completing a set allows the player to build Buttons and, eventually, the Snow Palace, increasing the rent charged for the properties belonging to the set.
  • Roll / Turn: Similar to traditional dice, the game uses a scrolling device stylized as an item from the film, such as a telescope or a button. This tool determines how much the players can move on the board each turn. Some faces of the device have special events that refer to events in the movie, providing a more immersive experience for players.
  • Move: After the turn, players move their personalized tiles, which represent important characters such as Coraline, the Cat or the Other Father, around the board. Each space can represent properties to be acquired, special events or specific challenges in the Coraline universe. Movement is not only for acquisition, but also explorative, encouraging players to experience every aspect of the board.
