#FUNNIEST QUIPLASH ANSWERS MOVIE#

You know, the movie about haunted Facebook? Although our setup was more than suspect, we played three rounds of Quiplash, each answer coming in worse, but somehow better, than the one before.

My other friend Katy was videoing in from her janky laptop and the camera kept constantly glitching, making her look like a character right out of Unfriended (2014). My friend Eli who is in South Korea video called a group of us over Facebook messenger and pointed his laptop at his TV which had the game on it. (This is not a screenshot from a game I’ve played with my friends, because ours would make 10x less sense than this to any normal human being.)įirst, let me just say how emotionally gratifying it was to jerry-rig a setup of a variety of TV and laptop screens so my friends and I could play Quiplash last night. Of course, inside jokes and double entendres abound in a game like this. The game pits two player’s answers against each other and the audience gets to vote for the best, often funniest, one. The answers for these prompts then show up on the main laptop or TV screen that everyone can see. In the game, 3-8 people spend three rounds answering prompts like “A better name for France” on their phone. Quiplash (2015) is a weird game to write about for a group dedicated to streaming games.

And maybe some reflections about the necessity of history, connection, and play in these days where physical proximity is severely limited. So I won’t be talking about streaming as part of Serious Play, but rather about me and my friends making fart jokes over the internet. Just a little background: I’m new to the group and I’ve only been part of three Lunch Zones at this point.
