ExplainGame (explaingame.com) is a mobile-friendly party game that runs in the browser. The goal of the game is to get your teammates to say the words on your card before the timer runs out, using only word association clues. For example, if you get a term like “Michael Schumacher,” you can say “F1 driver, Ferrari, ski accident” but not “Michael” or “Schumacher.” You can think of it as charades or Pictionary, but instead of acting or drawing, you have to use your words. ExplainGame is a clone of a popular board game in South Africa called 30 Seconds, or Articulate in the UK. It is meant to…

I just released a free demo (no login!) for "Talk to Me Human", a game about social persuasion. You speak out loud to play a variety of conversational challenges, and the NPCs talk back. I hope you enjoy, and would love to get your feedback!
