I honestly think the goal of the game is to learn something new about another person or find a little bit more empathy for others.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What was the most frustrating moment or aspect of what you just played?\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u00a0The most frustrating moment of this game was trying to get through the game without pulling wild cards. I understand their point; however, I feel like when people play, that&#8217;s not the focus or any really important part of it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What was your favorite moment or aspect of what you just played?\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>My favorite moment about the game was probably during the second level, where I think a lot of the emotions started to kick in. This is where I sort of got to step out of my own person and see how others viewed me as well as how I viewed them, and I think that&#8217;s a really special moment to share with people you love.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Was there anything you wanted to do that you couldn\u2019t?\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I really wanted to be able to keep some sort of answering structure within the game as to who answers what questions during the game.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you had a magic wand to wave, and you could change, add, or remove anything from the experience, what would it be?\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u00a0If I had a magic wand to wave and I could change something from the experience of this game, I would honestly say it would be to remove the wild cards and maybe make clearer instructions on how groups of more than two should approach answering these questions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is this a game you would play again? Yes _____ No ______ Why\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u00a0Obviously, this is something I would play again and would love to continue purchasing expansion packs simply because there has never been a time when I played this game and didn&#8217;t get something out of it or learn something about myself or another person.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Analyze the game using the 3 act structure.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>As far as this game running in the three act structure I think especially the way the game makers wanted people to interact with this game was through the three questions obviously with the first level you&#8217;re getting to know people by surface level questions then you move on to little more touching subjects within the second act and then within the third act it&#8217;s a reflection of what you learned from yourself and the people around you and how everyone answered their own questions that you begin to discover more about everyone in different ways.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":247,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47,64],"tags":[139],"class_list":["post-14102","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-game-design","category-game-reviews","tag-marked"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14102","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/247"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14102"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14102\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14105,"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14102\/revisions\/14105"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14102"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14102"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
