  • Week Four Reflection: Mysterium

    During week four, we played Mysterium. Mysterium reminded me a lot of the game Clue, however almost in reverse. At the beginning of the game, you selected a character. The “ghost” had a set of cards for each player that indicated a character, a room and then an object that was associated with your person’s…

  • Survive: Escape From Atlantis

    This past week, we played Survive: Escape From Atlantis. I was not the biggest fan of this game, but i still enjoyed playing it. I found this game to be quite frustrating at times, but overall it was enjoyable. I think that this game required some strategy in order to win, whether it’s where you…

  • Game of the week blog reflection 6

    This week we played “Ladies and Gentlemen.” The hardest part about it was how completely random everything was. For example, if you were a lady and you happened to pick the same place to shop at as another lady, this would hurt your chances of picking better items. Also there was the factor of whether…

  • game of the week blog reflection #7

    We played Linkee in class before spring break. The hardest part about it was how quickly you had to think to figure out the pattern in order to shout out “Linkee” before the other team. The ties that it has to leadership are that if you know the answer, you grab the paper and write…

  • game of the week blog reflection 8

    In class we played Ultimate Werewolf. The hardest part about it was when I was the wolf cub and I had to act like I wasn’t guilty, but I ended up winning the whole round! I guess my poker face is pretty good, even though I was freaking out inside. It ties in with leadership…

  • Ladies & Gentlemen

    I found this game rather interesting to be quite honest, also a little sexist, but that’s alright. It’s a good game that requires a lot of strategy from both players on the team. As a lady, you couldn’t just ask for the gentlemen to by you everything. you had to strategically choose your items so…

  • Spyfall 2

    Last week we were given several games to choose from, and my group chose Spyfall 2. This game required a lot of communication amongst players. My group resorted to asking a lot of questions, but to my understanding, players also make observations, statements, etc. We would ask a specific player a question regarding the card…

  • Betrayal of the House on the Hill: 3rd game of the semester

    This week’s game was Betrayal at house on the Hill. It is a semi-cooperative game that switches from a cooperative game to having a traitor that is against everyone halfway through the game. You are people exploring a haunted house looking through the different rooms for omens, items, and events. The game is unique in…

  • Mysterium: Week 4

    This week’s game was Mysterium. It is cooperative game where one person acts as “the ghost” and is in charge of giving “visions” to players from the afterlife. Each round, the ghost gives cards to various players and based on the cards that the ghost gives them, they have to distinguish which entity their fortune…
