Tabletop Thursdays Digital Board Game — Virtual
At 7:00 PM Central, Oasis Gaming will be hosting our Community Play Night on our Discord Server!
GAME: Anomia
Platform: Tabletop Simulator on Steam
Cost: $20 on Steam, but Oasis Gaming uses this program a LOT
" Anomia: [uh-NO-mee-uh] - Noun - 1) A problem with word finding or recall. 2) Chaos. 3) The game where common knowledge becomes uncommonly fun! Anomia plays off the fact that our minds are positively brimming with all sorts of random information; things to eat, pop songs, websites, etc. Sure, under normal circumstances, it's easy enough to give an example of a frozen food, or a dog breed; but you will find that your brain works a little differently under pressure! The directions are simple. Draw a card from the center pile and flip it over. Does the symbol on your card match one on another player's card? If so, you must quickly face-off with the other player by giving an example of the person, place, or thing on their card before they can do the same for yours. If you blurt a correct answer out first, you win their card and drawing continues. Sounds simple, right? Wrong. Wild cards allow unlike symbols to match, increasing the number of things you must pay attention to. Cascading face-offs can occur when you hand over a lost card revealing a new top card on your play pile. All this adds up to a high-energy, hilarious play experience where everyone is involved at all times. "
Like our values state, "Be accepting and be accepted". Come as you are. Newbie to veteran, shy to outgoing, all are welcome!
