Description
--- "Wonder Book" is a co-operative pop-up adventure game for 1-4 players exploring the dragon world of Oniria via an interactive 3D book. Key mechanics include: - *Co-operative gameplay* Players act as teenage adventurers, winning or losing as a team across six chapter scenarios. - *Chapter decks* Pre-sorted cards deliver story, rules, goals, and challenges in an unfolding narrative. - *Hero actions* Each player performs three actions per turn: moving, fighting, using skills, collecting magic sparks, or interacting with pop-ups/cards. - *Enemy phases* Wyrm cards dictate enemy responses, including movement, attacks, spawning, or surprises. - *Varied challenges* Scenarios feature exploration, boss fights, riddles, minigames, and clue-finding in a pop-up book. Wonder Book is a co-operative pop-up board game for 1-4 players, where participants embody teenage friends entering Oniria—an idyllic paradise of ancient dragon wonders—through the Wonder Book portal in an abandoned tower. Structured across six consecutive chapters, each scenario uses a dedicated deck of cards to narrate the story, enforce rules, present goals, and introduce challenges within an interactive 3D cardboard pop-up book that progressively reveals the world. Gameplay begins with the chapter's first card, advancing through the story to a goal card that outlines objectives, hero turns, and enemy behaviors. Heroes take turns performing three actions, such as moving, fighting, leveraging individual skills, gathering sparks of magic for special actions, or engaging with cards and pop-ups. Following all hero turns, a Wyrm card resolves enemy actions like moving, attacking, spawning, or unexpected events. While core mechanics are straightforward, each chapter diversifies gameplay with elements like exploration, boss battles, riddle-solving, minigames, and clue hunting to propel the adventure forward. ---
