Rapi-Gami: The origami improvisation game!

~folder~of~paper~ · October 20th, 2006, 12:34 pm

Ok, This may seem a bit odd, but I'v just devised a game called Rapi-Gami... It's pictionary with an origami twist. I don't really have anyone to play it with but you can feel free to play it with other origamists. If you think it's and idea worth stealing, just remember that I devised it...

Rapi-Gami - By ~folder~of~paper~

You need 3 people of reasonably even origami skill
Loads of squares cut from A4 copy-paper
An egg-timer or stop-watch
Cards with objects written on them

1. Decide who will fold first and who will guess.
2. One person takes a card and has 3 minutes to fold what is on it (not using a model from a text-book or one previously known!) while the others guess what it is.
3. At the end of 3 minutes, If the itemhas not been guessed, do another. Otherwise, who ever guessed correctly, gets a point.
4. You can swap over, or play first to 5 or so. If you have larger groups, race to see whos group guesses their groups item first.
5. HAVE FUN!

Locally there are some chocolate bars that come with a little picture for you to stick on an album. It is common to play Chocogami, you open your chocolate bar (each player gets one for him/her self) and you have to fold whatever is in the picture. I played a few times and lost to Jeremy Shaffer who was attending a convention I went to.

Do you have to give up your chocolate bar when you lose? Because that would be very, very cruel....

No way. What's yours is yours

It's not surprizing you lost to Jeremy, seriously! Have you seen what he's designed?! Remember you versed a guy who folded an origami walking bathtub from scratch! But I reckon It'd be an honour to verse him!
Chocogami sounds fun! Especially because of the choco- part!

That sounds lot like that game (which I can't remember the name of) where you get a card and draw a picture and get people to guess what it is...

I think you're looking for pictionary.
