This week in class,\nwe played Mysterium. Like every single game in this class, I had no idea how to\nplay when I got to class, even though I read all the instructions and watched\nthe video. However, I was pleased to experience that game play was much more\nsimple than I was anticipating. I know a lot of people around me said this, but\nMysterium was like a more advanced version of Clue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There were four\nplayers and one “ghost.” The ghost was recently killed and is trying\nto avenge their murderer. To do this, the ghost hands a photo card to each\nplayer. The photo card is meant to give some indication to the player about who\nthe murderer was, the location in which it happened, and the murder item. Each\nplayer has their own scenario but can share information on their cards to see\nwho has what scenario. When a person decides on a person, place, or thing, they\nmove their player to that card and people can vote if they think that person is\nright or wrong. The ghost provides feedback about who is right or wrong and\nwhoever is right proceeds to the next level. When everyone figures out all the\npieces to their puzzle, the ghost reveals a few more images to show who the\nkiller is. Each player then votes on the scenario they think is right. If the\nmajority guess right, everyone wins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ghost is,\nwithout a doubt, the leader in this game. They provide the proper images for\neach scenario and guide each player into correctly figuring out who the\nmurderer is. The ghost is unable to talk, so they can only communicate through\nthe image cards. This takes an immense amount of leadership because the ghost\nhas to be able to figure out everyone’s communication styles quickly and\nsilently to point them in the right direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This game was really\nfun and I am considering getting it for personal use. My cousin Elsa is 10, and\nI recently introduced her to Clue, which she quickly fell in love with. The\nthing with Clue is that is does not have as many options as Mysterium and we both\nquickly got bored. I will show her this game if I purchase it when I get home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
