We’re all familiar with board games. They usually involve a board, game pieces,
dice and sometimes fake money. They can
be fun at first but after a while they can get a bit tedious and boring.
They need something to liven them up-to make them more
interactive.
Sensible
Object/Voice Originals has the answer.
Introducing a game that talks to you, ask questions, guides you, keeps
track of your progress, offers help and even plays music and sound effects!
When
In Rome incorporates cutting-edge technology. All you need is a smart speaker and before you
can pack your bags you’re taking a trip around the world.
It’s like a board game and computer game combined, without
a cumbersome screen and CPU.
Here’s how to play:
Assuming you have Alexa (other smart speakers may also be
used) ask her to start When In Rome.
There are two teams: red and blue-usually two to four
players. Each team chooses the city they
wish to start in.
Who starts the game is determined by who answers correctly
a question about one of the cities on the board.
Alternating turns, players travel to different locations
on the board and answering question from locals.
Get the correct
answer and players choose to take points or pick up an Upgrade Card.
Answering the questions correctly helps your team make friends
who guide you along in the game.
As you play Alexa will notify players of souvenirs. The team who goes to a souvenir location and
answers the question correctly gets the souvenir to gain bonus points.
Upgrade Cards can either help or hinder-use them wisely!
The game ends when the third souvenir is collected or after
nine rounds.
Whoever has the most points at the end of the game wins!
Once you play When In Rome you’ll never go back to
regular board games.
Listen, learn and
best of all-have fun.
When In Rome includes:
1 game board
2 player tokens
18 friend
tokens
14 upgrade
cards
5 souvenirs
It’s the travel trivia game where real people ask the questions!
