Drift
Drift mechanics simulate gradual changes, often requiring players to adapt to shifting conditions. In racing games like Downforce, drift adds a realistic and dynamic element to movement and decision-making.
Hidden Movement
This mechanic keeps certain player movements secret, creating suspense and deduction opportunities. Games like Letters from Whitechapel use hidden movement to heighten tension and strategy as players hunt or evade.
Roll and Move
Players roll dice to determine their movement across the board. While simple and classic, as in Monopoly, modern games often enhance this mechanic with added strategy, such as choosing paths or modifying rolls.
