NG word game

[Experiment] We did an NG word challenge at UUUM and it turned into something wild…!

This is the “NG Word Game,” a lively game for three or more players.

All you need is paper and a pen, which makes it easy to set up.

Each person writes a word on a piece of paper.

Then everyone draws one paper and holds it up to their forehead so they can’t see their own word, but everyone else can.

The unseen word on your card is your NG (forbidden) word, and anyone who says their own NG word loses.

The fun comes from steering the conversation to make others say their NG words while avoiding your own.

Telepathy

[Board Game] You can’t see, hear, or speak—but can you still reach the same answer? [Telepathy]

Telepathy is a game where each player has one of their senses—seeing, hearing, or speaking—taken away while they play.

In this game, players must arrive at a single word together despite being deprived of senses they normally rely on for communication and gathering information.

That word is the one shared in common by the different prompts dealt to each player at the start.

Even just thinking of that is difficult, and on top of that, you have to figure out the answer using an unusual form of communication! It’s a play experience that lets you develop a new sense you could never encounter in everyday life.

Sea turtle soup

[Sea Turtle Soup] Kamaitachi takes on a lateral thinking quiz, aiming to find the correct answer using only YES/NO hints!

Umigame no Soup is a genre also known as a lateral thinking quiz, where your ability to organize conditions is put to the test.

You ask the quizmaster questions that can be answered with “yes” or “no,” and use those hints to arrive at the correct answer.

You keep asking questions to get closer to the solution, but there’s also an element of strategy since someone else might beat you to it.

It’s a game where people’s strengths vary greatly, so for the person posing the puzzle, how they provide hints can be crucial.

Werewolf game

[Online] Werewolf Grand Tournament ~Season 8 #2~

Speaking of Werewolf, it’s a popular game where players are divided into villagers and werewolves hiding among them.

Using various clues, you try to identify who the werewolves are during the day.

Then at night, the werewolves attack one person—that’s how the game progresses.

You can play it face-to-face with as few as three people, and it gets even more fun if you play online with others.

It’s also great to make friends on the internet, isn’t it? It feels like online gaming has evolved even further due to COVID.
