Board Game - I Am Not a Human

The future has arrived: neural networks are practically everywhere, and they have already learned to do what humans can do. For example, they can create a painting based on any request, write almost any text, and even compose music. In the modern world, where progress does not stand still, and technology is developing by leaps and bounds, one begins to wonder: how soon will machines completely replace humans? Prove your worth in the new digital world and show the neural networks that you are just as good as they are!

About the game

"I Am Not a Human" is a simple and fun board game for a group of 3 to 8 people, which can be quickly played at a party with friends or in a small family circle. Each player becomes a robot, a real machine, while one of them remains themselves, that is, a human. But who got the role of the "leather bag" is known only to the "leather bag" itself. All participants will be assigned one of several images generated by real neural networks, but the human will be left without knowledge of the image. They will have to maneuver in the harsh world of machines.

How to play?

At the beginning of the game, the role cards are sorted into stacks numbered from 1 to 9. First, a card with a purple back is placed face up, on it are cards with the same number with a white back (also face up), and on top is the human card (with the symbol 0_0). Each stack is placed into a separate bag in such a way that only the purple back of the card is visible.

Nine images are laid out on the table, and under each of them is a token with a number from 1 to 9. Shuffle the bags with the decks and randomly select one. Draw the cards so that no one sees the number on them. Set aside the card with the purple back without opening it – this is the correct answer card. From the bottom of the remaining deck, set aside cards equal to one more than the number of players. Remove the rest into the bag. Shuffle the cards, deal them face down to the players, and place the last card (also face down) next to the card with the purple back.

The card number determines which image is assigned. All players, including the human, take turns naming an association to the image – in one word. The human will have to maneuver and guess which image is correct. After all associations, the human can take a risk and announce the number of the image: open the correct answer card. If the human guessed correctly, they win the round; if not – the machines win. If the human does not want to take the risk, the game moves to a discussion: open the correct answer card and flip the token of the assigned image. Now everyone explains why they made that particular association. Then the players vote on who they think is the human. The player who receives the most votes opens their card.

Who won?

The game lasts for 6 rounds, during which participants will undergo a test to identify the human. In each of these rounds, they will earn victory points: for identifying the human, for the robots' victory, for guessing the image while playing as the human, and for not raising suspicion while not being a robot. At the end of the 6 rounds, add up the accumulated points. The one with the most points is declared the winner.
