The Genius Game

Inspired by Korean gameshows “The Genius” and “The Devil’s Plan”, this will be a series of games/challenges, testing your intelligence, negotiation, strategy, tactics, and social skills. The two losers of each game will face off in a short two-player death-match, and one will be eliminated. At the end of the final day, one player will be crowned the 2025 Strange Games Genius winner.

To play this game, you must commit to playing to the end, and therefore be available each day from 10am to 1pm, Saturday to Monday. Having said that, this game features player elimination, so you may be knocked out much sooner. There may also be some challenges between days, however, how much time you spend on these will be up to you, we only require your full attention during actual game time.

To play, you will need Discord on your phone, as you may need to communicate with each other between sessions.

If you would like to spectate, you are welcome to, whether you’ve been knocked out, or are simply interested in watching.

This game is recommended for smart people who are good at comprehending new rules, and also comfortable interacting with, and possibly lying to or betraying, other people.

We are strictly limited to 12 places, so please ensure to sign-up, and cancel your spot if you can’t make it.
