Let’s explore these categories and when to use them.
Physical Games and When to Use Them
Physical games are excellent for drawing crowds and creating excitement. They’re visually engaging and interactive—imagine a giant Plinko board. that’s hard to resist! However, physical games come with a few challenges:
- Logistics: Transporting and setting up physical games can be complicated, especially if you’re attending multiple events.
- Seasonal Limitations: Outdoor physical games aren’t ideal during the Swedish winter.
