Product Information

The Game of Things comes in a fabulous wooden box that makes it feel like a very grown up game. The game needs a minimum of 4 players but can be played by lots of them. It is also recommended for ages 14 to adult as some of the cards may not be suitable but if children can read and write, and parents remove any cards that the children might not understand, then they can definitely join in.

To score the game you get 1 point for each correct guess and 2 points for the person left at the end of each round.You must keep everyone engaged at all times so that their attention does not wander when it’s not their turn. There are lots of devices to accomplish that, but we found that keeping people laughing even when they were not writing responses or guessing “who-wrote-what” worked for us. I am surrounded by creativity all the time so it should be pretty easy for me. I work in the film industry as well as games, and my wife is a co-host in morning radio, which means a lot of our friends are creative people. My oldest daughter is in a pop band out of Montreal called Motel Raphael and my son is a 13-year-old singer-songwriter. I have a 20-year-old nephew who is also a singer-song writer and four other siblings/in-laws who work in film and TV as well, so we are always encouraging each other and discussing what’s happening in our home of Toronto, a city alive with creativity. There were multiple sources of inspiration for THINGS… but essentially it boils down to my brother Ted and I trying to make each other laugh. We would often adapt other games and sports to make them funnier for us. But get the right group of players, the right atmosphere, and the right amount of alcohol involved and this very soon descends into a huge amount of laughter and fun. When, in response to “things you wished you knew beforehand” you can get your mother-in-law to read – out loud, of course – some very perverse sexual thoughts (as more than one of us did throughout our various games) you know you’re onto a winner. When only one player has not been matched to his/ her response. The person to the left of the last Reader now becomes the new Reader. The game ends when

Am I really saving any money re-heating last night’s pizza if I have to get the oven up to 150 deg.C to do it? Also, some players have brought it to our attention that with smaller groups the Reader may recognize handwriting and therefore be able to easily match players to their response. Just around the corner is a generation of smart things, potentially more self-aware than the human behind the controls (at least while there are still humans behind the controls). In fact, a lot of the insights from this kind of technology will be applied to understanding the human element — it’s long been the case in the transport industry, for example.

Object of the Game

Another problem I had with the scoring mechanics is the fact that it forces the reader to repeat the responses over and over again until the round is over. With four players it is not that hard to remember all of the responses. With more than four players I could see the responses having to be repeated after every guess. After a while this gets a little annoying and unnecessarily extends the length of the game. Unless the players want to turn the game into a memory game, you are basically forced into repeating the answers since it is too hard to remember them while also trying to figure out which response each player gave. Of course the really smart money is the bet on a refrigerator that can close it’s own door, or allow me to do it remotely). To start the game you need to choose one player to be the reader for the first round. They choose one of the cards and reads it out loud. The Topic cards are not questions so there are no wrong answers which makes this a great game for those with little to no general knowledge.

This makes possible a whole new kind of economy — a service based economy, where we can buy what we consume directly, while we’re consuming it. So now that I got the scoring system out of the way I would like to say that The Game of Things actually has the makings of a good party game if you use the alternative scoring mechanics. The main reason why The Game of Things has so much potential is because of the prompts themselves. While some of the prompts are better than others, for the most part they are quite strong. What I like about the prompts is that they are generic enough that everyone should be able to come up with a response while giving players plenty of opportunities to create a funny response. I honestly think The Game of Things has some of the better prompts that I have seen from these type of party games. We played it for almost five years with family and friends and it was always a hit but we didn’t seriously think about putting it on the market. I was busy making Hollywood movies as an Assistant Director and Ted was in Yemen teaching at a private school. With the prompts being quite strong it actually leads to plenty of opportunities for humor. The Game of Things is obviously going to be better with more creative people. For the most part though the prompts are good enough that as long as people don’t take the game too seriously they should still be able to come up with some funny responses. The Game of Things succeeds at setting up players to create funny responses. There were plenty of times in the game where our group laughed quite a bit. I think the best response from our game was as follows: Something you shouldn’t teach your parrot to say-Bird, Bird, Bird is the word.

This is definitely the case with The Game of Things as the score keeping really distracts from the game itself. Basically the scoring aspect of the game involves players trying to guess which responses the other players came up with. Once every player has written down their response the reader reads all of the responses and the players then take turns guessing what the other players wrote down. Players score points by guessing the other player’s responses and being the last player remaining in the game. The Game of Things is an interesting game. I found the normal rules for the game to be pretty flawed. Most of my problems with the game come from the scoring mechanics. They reward players for guessing what responses the other players came up with which leads players to try to write responses that the other players would normally come up with. The mechanics are distracting to the point where I would throw them out and use your own scoring mechanics. This is where the game actually has the potential to be a good game. If instead of rewarding players for guessing which responses the other players gave you reward players for creating funny/creative answers, the game is actually quite enjoyable. The game includes a lot of prompts and the prompts are actually quite good. With the right group you can get a lot of laughs out of The Game of Things.
