======Based on: Board games======
Adaptation from board games is a quite straight-forward pattern for many **location-based mobile games**. Many early games where adaptations of board games (e.g. Geo tic tac toe). 

In most cases though, the modifications in the rules that are required for a good adaptation is not straightforward. **Location-based mobile games** impose a range of restrictions and open new possibilities (a good overview is the [[en:heuristics:heuristics|list of heuristics]]).

===Examples===
Examples of **board games** that can be a base for adaptation are:
  * Scrabble (which was the basis for [[en:games:museumscrabble|MuseumScrabble]] and its offshoots [[en:cityscrabble|CityScrabble]], [[en:carnivalscrabble|CarnivalScrabble]], [[en:if_in_monemvasia|If in Monemvasia...]], [[en:treasure_in_tzoumerka|Treasure in Tzoumerka]].
  * Monopoly
  * ... //(A quick search in the literature on **location-based mobile games** will reveal plenty of examples).//
