In the board game Wavelength, a clue-giver is given two ends of a spectrum (Adjective 1 and Adjective 2) and a target point (Target) between 1 and 7, inclusive. They must communicate a single word or concept (Noun) to their team, the guessers, who then proceed to guess the Target, based on Adjectives 1 and 2 and the Noun.
In this variant of Wavelength, each clue-giver is instead given the Target and the Noun, and must generate the spectrum for our team. The guesser’s job stays the same – we must guess the Target to the best of our ability.
In one twist, one side of the spectrum is decided by the “trolls” – the opposite team. The challenge for our clue-giver is to generate the best spectrum to help their teammate, the guesser. Three points are given for a correct answer, and one point is given for an adjacent answer. In a further twist, each round, the adjective had different constraints. For example, the adjective had to contain double letters, or only be [animal]-like.
We played a total of 10 rounds against 5 different adversaries. 17th Shard had the most points at the end of the event, and was crowned winner.
