Interactive exhibition
The 98 m2 exhibition area situated in the Mobility Centre comprises five different elements, and besides the wall decoration having a pleasant atmosphere, there are also bean bag chairs, benches and tables to be used in various games. The purpose of the exhibition is to inform and educate visitors of all age groups about the history of transport, industrial heritage, traditions, natural environment, cultural and ethnographic values of Barcs.
The huge, coloured tokens and dices of the board game, together with the game field (board) covering almost the entire floor area invite people to play. Because the simple game rules of Ludo are well known for almost everyone irrespective of their nationality, a joyful game round can soon develop. The colours and icons of the game board elements refer to the 5 Smart points placed around it, showing information and interesting facts about the particular modes of transport.
Board game
The main attraction of the Mobility Centre is the game board occupying the major part of the community area on the ground level. With its large size and colourful figures it invites people to play. Because the rules are those of the popular Ludo board game, visitors are not required to read sophisticated game descriptions. The few special rules can be easily understood by quickly reading through the tables displayed on the pillars. The size of the game area allows for playing in a group. Families or friends can form teams, with tasks for everyone. The dice is big, yet lightweight and soft so that it will not hurt should it hit someone. The tokens can be moved about without having to be lifted, allowing even a little kid to toss them along the board.
Smart points
Touchscreen kiosks are located at the walls surrounding the board game, which allow visitors to browse about the particular modes of transport, their history in Barcs and other interesting facts.
