## What is Nosedive™?

The digital component of the social-interaction board game NOSEDIVE, which allows players to select Experiences for each other that can raise or lower their Social Score.

NOSEDIVE is a hybrid board game where players collect physical Lifestyle cards as they play and, at the same time, use the app to maintain their Social Score. At the end of the game, players only count Lifestyle cards that their Social Score will support. 

Players use the NOSEDIVE component app during the game to give each other various types of Experiences. They then rate those experiences within the app, and those rating either raise or lower the giver’s Social Score. The NOSEDIVE app also tracks each player’s Social Score throughout the game, which directly affects the scoring of the physical Lifestyle cards at the end of the game.

Language: English, Spanish, Italian, Polish

### 5/5 — Review of the app: not the game

*2021-05-08*

First off, the app works fine. It’s sort of cumbersome that I have to pass a phone around. I’d much prefer everyone download their own version of the app and answer questions by themselves. Maybe passing the phone could be optional. It was uncomfortable playing with people who I didn’t necessarily want to have control of my phone while it’s unlocked and open. 

The game isn’t all that complicated. Whoever gets the most stars is the winner, whether the stars are high or low. Your social points (which is the only thing that matters for this app) just determine whether you get a leg up or down in the game. You could technically play this game without the app. Hope this helps anyone confused.

### 4/5 — Solid app but slow play with single device

*2021-01-03*

Fun game with 5 players, but play would be even better and more immersive if each player could play on their own device via cloud based game server. As is there is a lot of downtime as single device goes around table to distribute the Experiences.

### 3/5 — Good app

*2020-08-09*

The app is good however the game is really lame. Took too long and was boring

### 5/5 — WHAT A GAME

*2020-08-04*

Probably the single greatest fever dream I’ve come across in all my days. Between scoring stars and feeling like a real life Instagram celebrity I would highly recommend you spend between 30 min and 7 days playing this game. It challenges the mind and the body. I’m physically exhausted and emotionally fulfilled. Thank you creators. I can pass the torch to my children and this game will forever be a family heirloom.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2020-07-26*

The game had potential, but it’s very obviously a IP cash grab. Nobody actually involved with Black Mirror would approve of this. It’s so lame and basic, and still overly complicated and pointless. Absolute waste of money. RETURNING.

### 5/5 — so fun!

*2020-06-26*

everyone is saying that it’s too confusing but me and friends watched a video on how to play and we ended up having a super fun time. it’s worth it to learn how to play

### 2/5 — Confused 😩

*2020-05-28*

I brought this game today and I never been so confused in my life. The app does no justice for the game. I feel like the board is useless because the app gives you the rating. Maybe I’m not comprehending it but it’s confusing.

### 4/5 — Fun Game!

*2020-05-01*

The instructions aren’t very clear, but it’s a fun game and interesting to play once you understand how to win and strategize. I recommend playing with at least 4 people.

### 2/5 — Not corona worthy

*2020-03-25*

Figuring the game out was the best part of the game after that you might as well play go fish after.

### 4/5 — Not that complicated..

*2020-03-19*

Really confused as to what was so complicated about instructions after reading reviews. Idk how other people play board games but I tend to do a test round going step by step with the instructions and checking back on what to do after I make my move. The game is simpler than I thought it would be and my family and I had a lot of fun! I only wish there was a little more to the app, like a little more interactive. I thought everyone had to download the app and it kinda syncs a game so I was a little let down by just passing around a phone, but still a very enjoyable game. Have some patience and I promise it ain’t that hard lol
