Who Am I game in detail
Who Am I works because it forces people to ask questions of strangers. Each participant receives an identity, perhaps a character, a role or a theme-related persona, and discovers it by talking to others, who provide clues through the app. The mechanics reward asking and answering, and the game ends when identities are guessed. In Sociana's games library it appears with bingo and trivia in activation programmes at partner meets. It suits mixed groups, such as partners and employees, where the real aim is to break the habit of sitting with colleagues. Setting it up means preparing the identity list and clue rules, and deciding whether guesses must be made in person or through the app. Time-box it, because open-ended games fade. Points can feed the leaderboard, though the real measure is the amount of cross-group conversation. Brief hosts on how to restart a stalled table so energy does not collapse.
How Sociana uses it
Who Am I is configured in the games library with identities and clue rules; it can award points to the unified leaderboard and works with group scoping.
