Feelings was proclaimed winner of the call for projects launched by the city of Poitiers in the fight against discrimination.

The goal was the creation of a simple, easily playable game that relies on situations or questions around discrimination. Jean-Louis Roubira, one of the designers, has developed the famous Dixit workshops of language with young people at risk.

"Our preconceptions are challenged". Feelings contains 50 cards offering 150 situations from everyday life. For example: "You wake up in the body of a person of a different ethnicity" or "the Minister of Justice is caught smoking cannabis...". The players (up to 8) are obligated to express their feelings in a given situation and to guess the feeling of another player in the same situation. This empathy for each player is conducive to the debate and to challenges of our preconceptions.

The format is playful and players can score points, but the designers encourage that score is less important than the exchanges and resulting discussions.

Point of interest: situations can be adjusted on the basis of the public while maintaining the basic rules. Thus, the concept was developed to prevent school bullying.
