Let's Play A FAKE ARTIST GOES TO NEW YORK | Overboard, Episode 8

[@АлександрБагмутов]

A super fun thing to do in this game is in final round just give everyone a "fake" card and watch as they all exclaim "-yeeeees! I get it!" "-Oh you get it?! Yeeeeees!".

[@elizabethgorman6467]

I was waiting for a round where all the cards had FAKE written on them and it was just chaos with a very random and vague category.

[@tillyqtillyq3750]

What if the word passed out was Face or Fame or another word that's only one letter away from fake. Then everyone who got a real card would have a moment of shock and they'd have to talk that out discreetly xD

One card is an actual card and the others all have fake cards

The fact that she was RIGHT in the first round is my favorite.

[@rb4121]

To be honest, in another iteration of Werewolf, I managed to do the same thing. At the end of a very intense game, four (of I think 16) people were left standing, only one of them a werewolf, but nobody was aware that the werewolf had a partner. That - was me. I was also the seer. In this iteration, you could be elected mayor, so in case of a draw the mayors vote was worth more than that of any other person. I had set everything up from the beginning of the game. I had signalled my partner which people to kill as a werewolf, I had my own little hive of people I had managed to inform that I was the seer, so they would protect me in the daytime (until I systematically fed them to the wolves, that is), and it all had come down to that one vote. Earlier I had my hive set up to elect one specific mayor, a simple villager, and now I only had to convince her that her last ally was actually a werewolf, so I retraced my steps, including how I had basically elected her because I knew she was innocent, so she believed me I was the seer. The look on her face when she realised that I was partnered with the werewolf, and that she had just killed them all, was priceless, but she never trusted me again in any game ever after. Fun times.

just gotta say thank you so much to whoever on the polygon team makes the captions. as someone with an auditory processing disorder, it makes enjoying these videos so much easier :D

[@UltimateKyuubiFox]

Roman Hauksson-Neill In fairness, someone who needs captions might not have ever heard that theme, thus being unable to mentally conjure it from a memory they don’t have. Hearing ‘sad trombone music’, even if they don’t know what a trombone sounds like, tells them the mood of the music and thus the context of the intended comedy.

[@nadir6929]

Brian is the best artist. Yet he can't think of anything to draw. Simone knows what to draw but it's so dang obscure.

[@Lewa263]

Oh, this game reminds me of the game that I learned from a Chinese friend in grad school. He didn't know what the game would be called in English, so I have no name for it. But it was like this, except instead of drawing a line, you say a sentence about the thing on your paper. One person has a different word from everybody else on their paper but has to blend in. And because everyone has a word on their paper, nobody knows if they're the faker to start with. It's very fun, as long as whoever writes out the words doesn't pick completely dissimilar things to write.
