Abstract

L'invention concerne un jeu qui comprend un plateau et des pièces, recouverts intégralement ou en partie par un élément d'affichage, et configurés à partir d'un dispositif informatique. La base du jeu est modulaire, formée par différents plateaux constitutifs comprenant des éléments intégralement ou en partie recouverts par des éléments d'affichage ultrafins. Les pièces peuvent être des cartes, fiches, formes, dés et tout autre élément (toupie, roue, etc.), et peuvent être assemblées d'une quelconque manière pour former un autre type de structures, ou bien sont des composants modulaires. En ce qui concerne la base, les éléments d'affichage ultrafins peuvent être multitactiles et afficher des informations à partir du dispositif de configuration.
