Game Lab 1: I Doubt

Playing I Doubt on playingcards.io

Playing I Doubt with my classmates was a lot of fun. I have played a version of the game with physical cards before, where the players do not have to follow the increment rule of card values. Once a player puts down a specific card, everyone has to put that card down until someone doubts it. However, this version was quite amusing to play. Once we figured out the mechanics and the order in which players were supposed to go, we had a great time. The detailed session report of the game is as follows.

Play-group: Tirth, Sam, Kenny, Kyra, Andrew
