The article that stood out the most was “How to Prototype in Under 7 Days” for its relevancy, relatability and creative insight. I like the idea of forcing yourself to finish in 7 days- i too can see how sometimes extending a deadline doesn’t exactly mean more quality in the final product.

Also I identify with the “more restrictions means more creativity” i feel like i need some kind of a basis, starting point, constraint or something to improve on to fuel my creativity. I’m not good at coming up with something completely from scratch with nothing to go off of.

LookyFindy is a game that’s somewhat like a blend of Where’s Waldo, I Spy, MadLibs and a scavenger hunt. It’s an immersive gameplay experience in which you can actively be playing at all times in the day, no matter what activity you are performing, where you are or what time it is.

 

The rules are simple.

Goal: You or your team must try to find scenarios or things that match the “generated statements” described below.

Teams: If the total number of players is less than 5, this game is best played without teams. If there are more players, then teams of two (or more) are recommended. For example, for a class of 24, 6 teams of 4 would be appropriate).

Setup: There are two kinds of cards: Black “statement” cards have MadLibs-style blanks which can be filled with white cards, which contain nouns, adjectives, etc. A black “statement” card is pulled and shown to everyone. Each team is dealt n white cards. The teams stand in a circle, and, going counter-clockwise, fill the next blank in with a word of their choosing from their hand. This process can be repeated to have as many concurrent ’rounds’ as wished. We suggest 3 – 5, with a new black card and new white cards drawn each time. In another variation, each team does this setup process individually, to produce 1 statement per team.

Play: All teams will then have a set amount of time to find as many instances of any statements created by any team. The set time can be anywhere from 15 minutes to a week long or more! All teams can also be connected via a group chat system like Facebook Messenger, allowing everyone to communicate their finds real-time. When finding a statement, simply take a photo or video and share it with the group. Anyone can challenge a picture of whether or not it’s doctored or fake, and further proof must be given. Be sure to take multiple angles or a video to defend yourself!

Points: Each new instance found gives you a point. If your team is the first amongst the competition to find a statement, then your team gets 3 bonus points. The winner is the team with most points.

Sunday – Two people guess the color of car that will pass by them most (on a main road) in 5 minutes. Then count that color that passes for 5 minutes. Winner gets a chicken dinner.

Monday – See if you can sneakily turn on the airconditioner without Suzie Silver noticing. Prize for winning: you get to sit in comfort.

Tuesday – Two or more people compete to see who can balance their phone, on its corner, on one finger, the longest. Winner gets to brag on Social media.

Wednesday – Two people hook their index fingers around each others (like hooking two fish hooks). Then they both pull, tug-of-war style, until one of them breaks form. Loser might have a broken finger or something.

Thursday – A fun game where people try to yell the most realistic/convincingly real but ultimately made up language. Winner is amazing.

Friday – Like assassin, but with markers. See if you can sneak-attack your friends by slashing them with a marker. Winner has the least stained clothes.

Saturday – Each person picks a random word (played best with less people). Put those words together and each try to draw it in under a minute. Best drawing = winner! (i.e. “upperclass” and “octopus”)
