And there are also many stores in the United States that provide locations and professional props to play Werewolf. There are about 20 students participating in this game in our class. I…

Mysterium
In last week’s Mysterium game, we were divided into 3 groups. Because many of our classmates were playing this game for the first time, we chose an experienced classmate to play the ghost. He knew that each player was looking for What is the suspect, location and murder weapon, and through the cards he draws,…

Ultimate Werewolf
Through the first week of the Werewolf game, I found a lot of interesting aspects. First of all, everyone’s style is different. Some people like to protect good people as their identity when speaking with their werewolf identity. And the good people who stand on the wrong side will be referred to as werewolves by…

Fiasco & My Pre-Determined Death
This week playing Fiasco was interesting. I’m not sure what the normal group dynamic is playing this game but I played with a group of friends that all knew each other and I had a fun time, but I don’t think we played the game very seriously. It was humorous, and we spent 90% of…

My Mysterium Reflection: Eerie, Elaborate, Entertaining
This week we played the game Mysterium and generally, I really enjoyed this game. Two of my favorite games are Codenames and Clue, both of which I included in my top three favorite games for the “what kind of gamer am I?” survey. With this said, i’ surprised someone hasn’t recommended this game to me…

The Murder Mystery at Mysterium Manor
I love cooperative games. Even within the genre “cooperative”, there is so much variety in games. There may be players working in a team against other players as in Codenames or all of the players working together against the game itself as in Pandemic. However, as is the case for this Game of the Week,…

Game of the Week Blog Reflection 1: Ultimate Werewolf
For the first week of class, we played the game Ultimate Werewolf. It is very similar to the game Mafia which I had played before. However, in this game the werewolves kill and not mafia members. There are also many different roles in this game compared to how I have played Mafia before with just…
