It's interesting to see how other people's 'guesses' will function as a sort of clue for everyone as well. It would be way too dependent on having the same reasoning as the clue giver though. There are so many different arguments to make already for just the few cards in this example and that makes it not truly deduction and would ruin the puzzle aspect for me. Games that do the interactive deduction far better in my opinion are Letter Jam and Codenames Duet, where it definitely helps a lot that the games are fully cooperative so you will simply adjust if you motoce someone misinterpreted a clue.
Great review! I think I will love this game too. Have you played The Same Game? That seems fun to me as well. I might have to pick up Things in Rings and The Same Game soon.
Definitely not for me! As a neurodivergent person, the amount of arguments as to whether the cards apply would be unbearable, too ambiguous with no definite right answer. For example, I'd argue that lamp and calculator aren't flammable (i.e. - easily set on fire), but other opinions are also valid. It hurts me just to think about!
