  • Game of the Week Blog Reflection: Fiasco Week 1 Game of the Week Blog Reflection: Fiasco Week 1

    For this week in class, we started playing the game Fiasco. We are going to be playing this game over a span of three weeks. For the first week, my group was only able to set up the game. In the set up we had to roll dice to create our world and characters. As…

  • Game of the Week Blog Reflection: Fiasco Week 2

    This week, we continued playing the role player game which is called Fiasco. Last week, our group just finished the setup, so this week we begin to create several scenes, and we just get to the tilt. During the class session, we have only 4 players which we normally have 5. So, we decided to…

  • Game of the Week Blog: Fiasco Week 2

    This week we continued to play the role-playing game of Fiasco again and this time my team got through the tilt and next week we will be wrapping up with the aftermath. We were kind of thrown off track but the loss of one player who was absent this week and the inclusion of a…

  • fiasco week 1

    This week we played fiasco! At first I wasn’t too interested in it but once I watched the videos and read a bit it really got my wheels turning. It is a fast-paced diceless RPG which revolves around snap choices and improv. It seems more complex than it is at first glance but we really…

  • Game of the Week Blog Reflection: Fiasco Week 1

    This week in Tabletop Leadership we played Fiasco. Fiasco is a role-playing game in which 3-5 players develop characters, relationships, objects, and locations together to create a scenario. These scenarios will either end good or badly, depending on how your mates perceive your situation. In my opinion, the hardest part of the game is understanding…

    This week, we played another game called Fiasco, which is also a roll player game. In this game, we need to create and define our own relationships, needs, objects, locations and so on. And we need to make all of these into a story, which is fun. However, the hardest part for me is also…

    In Roll Player, players compete to build the best fantasy world adventurer. Players throw and select the dice to add to the character’s attribute score. They also need to buy weapons and armor for their heroes to equip them. Players train them to acquire new skills and discover their inner strength to prepare for the…

  • “How to Play” Video Reflection

    For the first time ever I created an instructional video with my voiceover and it was very nerve-wracking. The game I chose to model a how-to video after is one of my favorites called Among Us. Last week, I downloaded the mobile app and played multiple rounds while screen recording and recording audio with a…

  • What Type of Gamer am I Reflection

    Last week I completed a quiz that determined what type of gamer I am and then wrote a 1-2 page reflection of the results. In terms of the quiz taking experience, I would say that it was a relatively quick assessment and was straightforward. Those are elements that I can appreciate because when these types…

  • Game of the Week Blog Reflection: Fiasco

    This week in class we played another role-playing game called Fiasco. In our first session, we set up the game in Boom Boomtown and established boundaries that we were not comfortable crossing with the consent checklist. I really liked the fact that this game required us to have an open dialogue to express things we…
