Decorum reflection

Miami University
This week I played decorum, a game about being passive aggressive in order to solve the interior decorating puzzle. I feel like my brother and his fiancé would enjoy this game. The hardest part besides the lack of communication, was keeping track of certain needs. For example one game I needed to make sure there were more retro items than any other objects and it was really hard to keep track of what was what.
I think this game brings up a good leadership topic of being able to convey your feelings about something and that everyone is on the same page. This game shows how important those skills are when you lack them. It shows how things can take longer when people aren’t clear about their intentions.

I was able to play 2 games in class, the first being a lot harder than the other. In the first game I needed more retro items than any other items, I needed rooms to have only 2 colors of objects and walls, and I needed there to be an equal number of objects between the top and bottom floor. It was a lot for me to keep track of and was really hard to get completed. We ended on day 17 I think. The second game I played I needed either the top or bottom floor to be one color, only antique items on the top floor, and had to have exactly 7 objects on the board. I thought it was going to be hard but things kind of slid into place although my one friend complicated things a bit. We won on day 15.
