Sangkan Hurip, a Board Game Design Project Based on Kolenjer Astrological Math Narratives

Abstract

The development of board games types are wide consist multidisciplinary aspects such as culture, history, war simulation, role playing game, meta-economics transactions even ethnography and much more. Games’ been one of most popular media that grown rapidly as same as other popular media such as movies and animations. Board games itself is some kind of traditional games that played on table top by equipped with several items like cards, token and other visual assets arranged and managed with set of rules. Since games consist cultural and ethnographical aspects, this research focused in how a board game could use to promote traditional artifact like Kolenjer, an astrological tool used by Sundanese Baduy society, as the part of Sundanese ethnicity. Due the scarcity of the artifact and other researchers had difficulties to connected with primary source, it is most unlikely for the research to gain more information about more functions and how the artifact work properly. By using qualitative research tools such as literacy study and interpretation method, the research finally reinvents Kolenjer’s function to counts and predicts someone fate with traditional mathematical method for a game. Finally, the obtained data elaborated with game study theories and adaptation theory used to create an enjoyable board game’s project based on Kolenjer function
