Fruit Ninja HD - unlimited

Oops. Missed that we had 6, not 5. Sorry.

yeah, he didn't update board after taking washer so easy to miss count

so horse/tablet for unlimited makeups

fruit ninja also hits tablet but we already had that on list from last turn, so not sure why clued again

def kiwi
maybe press but you swipe, never press, in the game, so prolly not

pupil america makeup for x-men; he didn't do ivermectin - unlimited because we had ice next and ice is theirs because they just did n-1 with ice next on list

so:
horse
tablet
pupil
america
kiwi

that's 5/6 that we need; so fruit ninja is a 2-word clue

"known" words:

America - ours from x-men makeup
Comic - assassin
Horse - ours from ivermectin makeup
Ice - theirs from n-1 and our lack of unlimited last turn
Kiwi - fruit ninja
Pupil - ours from x-men makeup
Tablet - ours from ivermectin makeup

possible pair with kiwi for 'Fruit Ninja'?:

Agent - you are a ninja, not an agent; small equity
Hole - the fruit slashes in half, no holes, but it's similar; a bit of equity here
Knight - you are a ninja, not a knight; similar to agent I guess
Mount - you mount an attack on fruit? don't see it
Plot - doesn't really have a plot
Press - it's 100% swipes, no presses, but still seems like since pressing the screen to swipe that this has good equity

btw it just hit me that we didn't explicitly say game titles are allowed as clues in this, though I think it's in the spirit of the game

there may also be a song titled Fruit Ninja HD or an album for the game called Fruit Ninja HD, so may even fit the technical allowed clues

but either way, I think we should allow video game names going forward (though they should be major ones like fruit ninja; not some obscure app with 5 downloads that happens to be called "Pony Pill Students from Ohio Eat Fruit"

I agree with video games. Any sort of media (movies, tv shows, songs, albums, books, video games, etc.) is within the spirit of the game imo.

+1

I thought it was media titles, video games have to be a media title

Agree with all of this. And press would probably be in the lead for me. Gameplay is swiping, but you have to press the app icon to open it, probably press start or whatever level you want to play, etc.

Is it worth trying to think of 2-clues for kiwi+the field? That feels like a real sumbitch in this variant.

I feel like we just go press as good enough; he chose a touchscreen game so maybe we just go with the touchscreen word?

The Descent - 1

Cave horror movie, so Hole?

I don't know anything else about the plot besides that.

Sure, I've never even heard of it, so

Hole

gg

The Descent is quite good, do recommend.

Plot was blue

Comic was assassin

I saw no safe way to get Superhero without slamming into Comic. Seinfeld since there was an outside chance of hitting Show About Nothing for Plot.
