The Far Islands Online Web Game represents a significant milestone in my journey as a web developer. This project marked my debut into the world of online gaming and provided me with a hands-on experience in developing a dynamic, multiplayer board game using the MERN stack.
The Far Islands board game is an exciting and complex tabletop game designed for 2-4 players that combines strategic gameplay with creative storytelling. Developed by Creazyve, this digital adaptation of the game brings the world of the Far Islands to life. The digital version of the game is built using the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React, and Node.js) and offers an engaging and immersive gaming experience with a range of features to enhance gameplay and player interaction.
