Players
Unlimited is a team game. We recommend teams of two to six players. Two teams (a max of 10 players) can play with one deck.. You can play with a larger group by purchasing additional decks. For example, you need three decks for a group of 30 players.
Post-Game Debrief
When the game is over, it’s good to reflect on the learning experience:
- What insights did you gain?
- What did you learn about design thinking?
- Where could you apply a design thinking approach in your own work?
Ask players to write down individually one key insight to take-away into action.
Get in touch if you can’t find an answer to your question regarding the game.
