The Designercise Flexible Thinking Kit stretches your problem solving approaches and stimulates mental agility. Through the games in this kit, players unpack common perceptions, looking at wordplay and divergent language use. Games in the Flexible Thinking kit include “Ride the Riddle” (a riddle solving game that challenges players to quickly think of divergent answers) and “Riddle Quest” (where players have to develop their own counterintuitive riddles!). Other games in this kit that flex your grey matter, are “The Bread and the Butter” (a "but why!?" approach to explaining your opinions based on a common improv game approach), the “Fairy Godmother vs the Devils Advocate” game ( a fast team against team debate game in which realistic opinions are optional!) and “Different Lens” (which takes a role based approach for teams to problem solve!). This kit contains the Riddle Question and Answer decks, Role cards and our mid-level red deck of Problem cards. Together, these decks are perfect for thinking outside the box, looking at the effect that language and preconceptions have on our decisions, and for improving your practice of understanding problems and opinions outside your own set of biases.
Each Small Kit includes:
