A party game about conveying words by grading them on funky scales. How do you communicate PIZZA when you only have hot-cold, heavy-light and dry-wet?
Slippery Slopes
Using your Phone
By default, this game is completely offline: just download the material once, print it, and play.
It is highly recommended, however, to add a timer to rounds. You can use any timer or app, including my own Pandaqi Timer page.
Or you can simply play the completely digital sequel: Slippery Slopes: Trippy Touches. Playable with just one smartphone, rules explained as you go, still the same fun core mechanic.
Background
This game is a sort of spiritual successor to my That’s Amorphe games. I came up with the idea just as I was finishing the spin-off (That’s Amorphe Pictures), but I had already committed to another project so I couldn’t make it back then.
Additionally, I ran into some problems I didn’t know how to solve yet. Any creative idea starts out way more complicated and messy than the final product—simplifying and streamlining (game) ideas is perhaps the most important skill one can have.
This game takes the same idea of “communicate secret words/concepts in a vague and fun way”, but puts a more precise and focused spin on it this time. The rules are even shorter and players who need a bit more certainty (instead of relying on creativity and inspiration) can find it in this game.
A simple, fast party game for any group!

Support
You can hire me! Maybe you need a special board game or video game for a birthday or educational purpose? I'm also open to inquiries about physically publishing my games. I am a registered freelance artist from the Netherlands and you can contact me professionally through my portfolio.
If unsure, visit my Online Store. It contains everything I ever made. Though it focuses on playful education and activities for children/family, first and foremost.
Another great way to support me is to simply let me know what you think! Mail me at harmonize@pandaqi.com with any feedback.
Alternatives would be to buy my paid work (a win-win situation!) or to donate through the most popular channels (see buttons below).
