LUGU
(Self-Published)
LUGU is a storytelling card game where players compete for the highest score while creating a story together. Each player has an identical deck of 22 cards, each featuring a different, abstract picture. The storyteller in each round will select 4 cards at random from their deck and use the pictures on these cards as inspiration to create a story. The other players will attempt to match the storyteller's card with a card from their deck. Players score points if they correctly match. The storyteller scores points if a player matches but not if all of the players match. Each player will build onto the story created by the first storyteller, resulting in a large story that all players contribute to. After everyone has been the storyteller twice the story is over and the highest score wins.
