2. Mupe & Winter Assembly
โข Mupe is an free open source client-server platform,
the client runs on mobile phones with Java midp
โข Mupe Winter Assembly is a collection of four mini
games to be played by people attending the Winter
Assembly at the end of April in Tampere, Finland.
โข UI was quite intuitive, easy to use after a few minutes
โข Nice to be able to chat with other players
โข Seeing the HiScores encouraged competition
โข Good to be able to give feedback & share Mupe with
others
3. Hi-Lo (1 Player)
โข Number guessing game: is the unknown number
higher or lower than the 5 numbers shown?
โข Need to read the โHelpโ section
โข Easy to play, no special skills required
โข Ok, but least exciting of all four games
โข Could be a time killer, waiting for bus, etc...
4. Piper (2p)
โข Connect the next pipe piece to your pipe network, try
to block the other playerโs progress
โข Exciting, fast paced
โข Time penalty when swapping an unsuitable pipe, and
time limit for inaction lead to tension
โข Donโt need to be facing the other player, can be
played remotely without affecting the playing
experience
5. Dung Beetle (2p)
โข Try to roll the balls of dung into your own chambers,
bite your opponent to momentarily stun him
โข Exciting, fast paced
โข Uncertainty when dung will come, leads to players
chasing each other to stun each other
โข Donโt need to be facing the other player, but itโs good
fun to hear the other playerโs reactions
6. Indian Poker (2p)
โข Each player sees the others playerโs card and mood,
has to guess if his is better than the other playerโs.
โข Intuitive UI if you know poker terms
โข Nice to express your mood with colours, three
buttons to change mood: happy, neutral, angry
โข Good fun to play when physically facing the other
player, social
