Holloway

Holloway is a cooperative maze that only opens for a team that talks. Your group steps into a shifting labyrinth to find glowing sigils, none of which will lift for a single pair of hands — so you split up, call to each other across the walls, and describe what you see. Roughly once a minute the house rearranges itself, wiping the map in your head, and the only way anyone leaves is together.

Fire the Vibecoder

Fire the Vibecoder is a hidden-role party game wearing the skin of a corporate layoff platform. Everyone gets a secret job title, and one or two hidden "Vibecoders" are mixed into the team — the rest have until the end of the sprint to talk, accuse and reason out who they are. Almost the entire game is conversation: you defend your own record, poke holes in everyone else's, and the group casts a single vote to fire one colleague.

Consensus

Consensus is a fast social-negotiation game that turns group decision-making into a spectator sport. Each round puts one opinionated question on every phone with four options and a pot of points — but an option only passes on a strict majority, and if the room can't agree, nobody scores. Every player is secretly paid to steer the group toward a different option, so the room has to actually talk, bargain and build coalitions to score at all.
