5 new game ideas that explore changing players minds

  1. A game where people roleplay as people with different types of worldviews and backgrounds and interact through a story/gameboard where the decisions they make and how they talk to others is based on who they are playing as – meant to expand peoples visions of other people
  2. A belief swap game – basically a game of friendly argument. Everyone gets dealt belief/argument cards and go in a circle playing them and also playing a “logic” card that people have to defend based on said logic. Winning is based on how many Winning, Valid Points, or Totally Invalid Points cards you can collect throughout the game.
  3. What do you value most – a game about having limited resources and several situations are introduced and each player decides what is most important to them
  4. A game where you are all are working together to do or build something but communication degenerates as the game progresses from free speech, to certain code words, to certain people, gestures, etc. Makes players value speech and communication options.
  5. Changing players minds about consumer culture – You start with a certain amount of money to buy things which help you accomplish tasks that are introduced each round. However, the items degrade unless you invest in ones that last longer, etc. That sort of idea. I’d work out the details
