Tasutamängu

Tasutamängu is an Estonian term that translates to "token game" or "token play." It refers to a type of board game or activity where players use tokens, counters, or chips to represent their progress, resources, or game pieces. These tokens can be of various materials, such as wood, plastic, or even abstract representations on a digital interface. The core mechanic involves moving these tokens around a board, collecting them, exchanging them, or using them to perform actions within the game's rules.

The concept of tasutamängu is broad and encompasses many different game genres. It can be seen in classic board games like chess, where pawns and other pieces are tokens, or in strategy games where players manage resources represented by tokens. Board games focused on economic simulation often heavily rely on token management for currency, goods, or influence. In simpler forms, tasutamängu might involve children using colored chips to learn counting or basic strategic thinking. The visual and tactile nature of tokens often adds to the engagement and understanding of the game for players. The specific rules and objectives of a tasutamängu are entirely dependent on the individual game design.
