Abstract
Digital board games, along with hybrid board games, that
combine physical and digital elements have grown in success
recently. This interview study compares the experiences of
playing a material board game and digital adaptations of it.
Overall, the material and digital play were experienced to be
different aspects of the same hobby – thus being parts of a
wider pastime. The results provide insight into different
aspects that players appreciate in both ways of playing. In
conclusion, these results are weighed as to what kind of
design implications they offer for future hybrid board games.
