The first player throws the dice and moves forward on the board in any chosen direction. He completes a task from the colour he landed on (see Additional game info). If the player successfully completes the task, he gets one bottle cap and places it on the corresponding colour of the scoreboard.

The panel

The diversity game is a colourful magnetic board game during which players will be confronted with the diversity of talents and skills that are present in society. Each player has his own talents and skills at the start of the game and while playing, the players need to acquire as many new skills as possible by completing a variety of different tasks.


The game board consists of four main sections:


1. The goose board: the middle of the panel is the circular board game with coloured squares (blue, yellow, red, green and some special squares). In the middle of the panel, you can see a globe which is the starting point of the game.

The coloured squares represent one specific skill:

  • Yellow: creativity
  • Red: language
  • Green: mathematics
  • Blue: social skills


The special squares:

  • Dice: throw again
  • Black: receive two bottle caps for a task of your choice. The players loose a bottle cap when they are unable to complete the task.
  • Two colour squares: the player gets a free bottle cap for a self-chosen skill
  • Earthquake (globe in the middle): each player gets the scoreboard of another player. As a consequence some players will loose or win some skills.


2. Tasks: inside the circular game there are four times two circles depicted in the four different colours. These circles represent a specific task the players need to complete when they land on a square of the corresponding colour during the board game.

  • See Additional game info for the games corresponding with the coloured squares.


3. Scoreboard: In the corners of the panel there are four scoreboards, each one of them with a combination of three different skills. At the beginning of the game, each player will have an individual skill, depending on the colour (e.g. green: mathematics). The players throw the dice to determine which player will be which colour/ character. The pictures of the bottle caps below the scoreboard show how many exercises a player needs to complete before one can proceed to the master exercise. For example: the red player (language) only needs to complete one red exercise before going to the master exercise. However, this player needs to complete two mathematical (green) and three social (blue) tasks in order to proceed to these master exercises.


4. Master exercise: on the edge of the circle there is one bigger circle in each colour, connected to the board game. In addition to this, there are three smaller circles outside the circular board game. The big circles represent the master exercise, which players can only compete if they scored enough points for this specific skill. The big coloured circles are once again linked to the specific skills. A player needs to land on the big circle to actually do the task. If on the square, a player can choose between three different master exercises per colour as depicted in the three small coloured circles outside the board game. When throwing the dice to reach the square for the master exercise, it is not necessary to throw the exact number to reach the master exercise square.

  • Invest in finding new tasks and new master exercises to keep the game interesting.
  • Start a discussion with the players by looking at the different pictures on the panel. How can you link them to talents/skills? What are your strengths? Which skills do you want to develop?
