Brief 'n break!
A game board direct to excite creative thinking.
Designer's block is not a joke! If you keep looking at the problem from the same point, there will be the same thoughts, the same pictures, the same feelings with no different results.
We need something which can help us to create a “moment of parting” allowing different perspectives. Play appears as a good tool to reach this target.
Brief 'n break is a board game (cards game + pencil and paper game) direct to excite players' creativity, which can help you to find new incentives, new inspirations for present or future projects.
Each player receives (in turn) ,from the opposite team, a “brief” composed by 5 cards (an object, a target, a physical feature, a functional feature and a vague mark). This player has to draw his personal idea, respecting the constraints, in order to make it understandable by his team-mates who have the task to guess the starting brief.
​Fast sketching, random associations of terms, playing and facing with other people help proliferation of ides in order to stimulate standard players and to unfreeze creatives in crisis.
