Educational board game about Terrain vague
Balcaříková, Ivana ; Strouhal, Jonáš (referee) ; Skála, Jiří (advisor)
This diploma thesis is concerned with the mediation of feelings, moods, functions, and movements of varied actors in the environment of terrain vague — wastegrounds. I am trying to hand over this experience with the help of a tabletop game (TTRPG), in which the player has the opportunity to wander around different types of landscapes such as abandoned playgrounds, old factories, allotments, or unfunctional kid´s camps. This is a working prototype of a board game, which is at this moment concerned mainly with the character of a child. Terrain vague presents the dark side of cities, different from the common social structures, without the supervision of authority and full of new potential for change and in our case mainly for the game. The nature of this character sets itself a task to thematize terrain vague as a place created for adventure, the game as well as a key element in creating the autonomy and independence for children.

Hrabálek, Ondřej ; Muller,, David (referee) ; Bartes, František (advisor)
This thesis analyzes competitive environment in the market segment of board and card games, where the analyzed company is doing business for more than six years already. First, the study defines and assesses current processes and conditions in each part of corporate activities, including in particular retails sales (both e-shopping and brick and mortar shop), publishing house and wholesale of imported products. Through the recent years, the company has undergone extensive and permanent adaption and transformation in order to retain its competitiveness. Competitors on are different regarding the wholesale and retails segment, given that these markets are separated from each other and business conditions vary significantly. Further, paper will provide actual development plans of company for upcoming years and the methods to reach the proposed goals. Finally, the development business plan and methods are to be evaluated, based on competitiveness criteria.

Vrtílek, Michal ; Zbořil, František (referee) ; Rozman, Jaroslav (advisor)
This Bachelor's Thesis describes the desing and implementation of artificial intelligence for the board game Five in a row. The main goal of this thesis is to create an application able to communicate with the Manager For Board Games with the use of network communication and being able to play the board game Five in a row on a suitable level. This work contains theoretical parts about the history and rules of Five in a row and it's variations, about the possibilities of use of artificial intelligence in this game and about the structure of aplications used for playing it. It's concern is about the actual desing and implementation of said application, including it's controls. In the end I evaluate achieved results and propose additional directions for the program development.

Augmented Reality for Desk Board Game
Richter, Jiří ; Sochor, Jakub (referee) ; Beran, Vítězslav (advisor)
Cílem této práce je vytvořit systém, který bude vylepšovat zážitek z hraní deskových a především karetních her, promítáním relevantních multimediálních informací do herního prostoru. V první části jsou popsány přínosy deskových a karetních her. Dále jsou představeny principy rozšířené reality a jejich použití při návrhu takového systému. Navržený systém je rozdělen na tři moduly. Prvním z nich je modul, který analyzuje stav hry na stole v reálném světe --- poskytuje informace o aktivitě hráčů a jaké typy herních objektů se vyskytují na stole. Druhým je modul, který se stará o řízení celého systému, poskytuje uživatelské rozhraní pro kalibraci systému a implementuje stavový prostor hry, pro kterou je systém určen. Třetím je modul, který poskytuje výstup systému --- vytváří multimediální obsah, který je po-té promítnut na stůl, a je relevantní k aktuálnímu stavu hry. Na závěr je navržený systém implementován pro karetní hru Bang, otestována jeho schopnost udržovat krok se stavem hry v reálném světě a provedeno testování na uživatelích.
