Support its creationPlay, learn, connect
If you love learning and connecting with others in authentic ways, you'll love Feelings & Needs. The rules are simple:
1. Someone improvises an expression
2. The rest of the players guess feelings (+1 point)
3. Once a feeling has been chosen by the improviser, the rest of the players guess needs (+2 points)
The game isn't available to the public yet. It is currently at the prototype stage being refined, and I need your support to make it a reality.
About the designer
Hi there! I'm Nelcy, an independent designer living between New Jersey and Madrid, and the person behind this game. The idea for it was born out of my desire to make expanding my emotional literacy more fun and organic.
I've been practicing for a few years with a wonderful community and felt the need to invite people outside of that space to practice with me. That's why the game is bilingual (English and Spanish, the language spoken by most of my family and many of my friends).
