In class I played 2 games. The first being Trigger and the second game was called Ticket to ride.
The First game, Trigger, was a lot of fun to play. There was a lot of Player v Game interation because you had to think and respond quickly when presented with questions. Some of the questions on one hand were confusing and they did have a lot of double negatives, but that made it challenging and brought in some discussion with the other players helping the player v player interaction. Player to player interaction happened greatly when we all had to slap our hands down on top of each other to see who could answer first.
The Second game my group and I played was called Ticket to Ride. The first part that didnt help with liking the game was that we had to read the rules online, and that kinda put a damper on it, since some of the class mates have clashing personalities/ learn different ways. After reading the rules, I figured out that this game requires strategy. I feel as if I retained more information playing Ticket to Ride then I did Trigger because Trigger was so fast paced.
Furthermore, these games are more educational that the pick 3 games. Trigger was the most fun, it reminded me of the pick three games, but more fun and it had the most potential to be the best game if only the questions pertained to a certain more condensed subject. Then it would be perfect. As far as Ticket to Ride was not very educational, could have amped that up. The game was more strategic if anything. Over all they helped me learn how drastically learn how a game is successful and not.
