Welcome to Doomscrollers! Mafia, but with your social media feeds. It’s a privacy invading battle of digital profiling. Every player dumps a selection of videos from their current TikTok, Instagram, or X feeds into the game. One player is secretly designated as the Doomscroller. From that moment on, every video the group watches comes directly from the Doomscroller's feed. The Roles → The Doomscroller: Your mission is simple. Survive. You must deflect suspicion, blame your friends' weird tastes, and convince the group that these videos belong to someone else. → The Grass Touchers: Everyone else is on the hunt. Analyze the content, interrogate your friends, and identify the Doomscroller before time runs out. How to Play 1. Connect with friends via a host link. 2. You have 60 seconds to upload your current social media algorithm. 3. One video from the Doomscroller’s feed is played for the group. 4. You have limited time to discuss. Who would be most likely to have this AI fruit slop on their feed? 5. Cast your vote to weed out the Doomscroller. Winning and Losing → Grass Touchers win if they correctly identify and vote out the Doomscroller. → The Doomscroller wins by successfully deflecting suspicion or if the Grass Touchers are voted out first. Do you really know your friends? Do you even know yourself? It’s time to find out who the real Doomscroller is.
