Description
--- "In Concept" is an innovative word-guessing game where teams use icon associations to clue phrases for other players to deduce quickly and competitively. Key mechanics include: - *Icon-based clueing* Teams of two place pieces on board icons to represent main concepts (e.g., question mark on liquid for "milk") and sub-concepts (e.g., food/drink, white). - *Collaborative team play* Neighboring players select a hidden word or phrase and judiciously position cubes and icons to guide guessers. - *Complex phrase handling* For multifaceted terms like "Leonardo DiCaprio," main icons signal actor/director while sub-icons reference specific movies such as Titanic or Inception. - *Victory point scoring* First player to guess correctly earns 2 points, with the team also receiving points; highest total points determines the winner. In Concept is a team-based word and phrase guessing game centered on associating icons on a shared board. Pairs of adjacent players select a secret word or phrase and collaboratively place pieces—such as question marks for main concepts and colored cubes on matching icons—to provide clues without direct communication. Simple terms like "milk" are hinted via liquid, food/drink, and white icons; complex ones like "Leonardo DiCaprio" use overarching actor/director cues alongside sub-concepts for films like Titanic or Inception. The first player to correctly identify the term scores 2 victory points, the clueing team earns points as well, fostering competition as players vie for the highest total to win. ---
