Was gibt es Faszinierenderes, als die menschliche Psychologie zu entschlüsseln und zu lernen, wie man Menschen liest? Zu erkennen, was ein Blick, ein Zögern oder eine minimale Veränderung in der Stimme bedeutet, ist eine echte Superkraft. Und das Beste daran: Am schnellsten und intensivsten lernen wir, wenn es richtig viel Spaß macht, nämlich mitten im Spiel, beim gemeinsamen Lachen und Ausprobieren! Genau darum dreht sich diese Gesellschaftsspielerunde! Hier stehen **Secret Identity & Social Deduction Games** im Mittelpunkt. Wir machen einen eigenen Spiele-Tisch für Social Deduction Games beim öffentlichen Spieleabend in der Pauluskirche. Das Spieleabend ist gratis. Da ich begrenzte Plätze am Spieletisch habe, muss ich das Event begrenzen. ### Was sind Social Deduction Games? Bei diesen Spielen bekommt jeder eine geheime Identität zugewiesen. Die Gruppe ist aufgeteilt: Die meisten spielen ehrlich, doch einige wenige sind die geheimen Saboteure (bekannt aus Klassikern wie *Werwölfe*). Das Ziel? Durch Diskussionen, Bluffen, gezieltes Fragen und Beobachtung der Körpersprache herauszufinden, wer die Wahrheit sagt und wer lügt. Ergänzend werden an diesem Abend eventuell auch ein paar normale Deduktionsspiele auf den Tisch kommen, bei denen es statt um das Lesen von Menschen eher um messerscharfe Logik, das Kombinieren von Hinweisen und das Lösen von Rätseln geht. ### Das erwartet dich: * **Reine Praxis statt grauer Theorie:** Keine komplizierten Regelstudien vorab – alle Spiele werden vor Ort direkt und einfach erklärt. * **Spielerische Selbsterfahrung:** Teste deine Intuition, schärfe deine Menschenkenntnis und experimentiere mit deiner eigenen Überzeugungskraft. * **Jede Menge Spaß:** Erlebe einen dynamischen Abend voller Nervenkitzel, Wendungen und guter Gespräche. Egal, ob Profi-Bluffer oder absoluter Neuling – komm vorbei, spiel mit und lerne die Kunst des Menschenlesens von einer ganz neuen Seite kennen! \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- What could be more fascinating than decoding human psychology and learning how to read people? Recognizing what a look, a hesitation, or a subtle shift in someone's voice means is a true superpower. And the best part: we learn fastest and most intensely when we are having real fun—right in the middle of a game, laughing and experimenting together! That is exactly what this board game round is all about! The main focus here is on Secret Identity & Social Deduction Games. We are setting up a dedicated table for Social Deduction Games at the public board game night in the Pauluskirche. The board game night itself is free of charge. Since spots at our gaming table are limited, I have to limit the capacity for this event. **What are Social Deduction Games?** In these games, everyone is assigned a secret identity. The group is divided: most play honestly, but a select few are secret saboteurs (as seen in classics like Werewolves). The goal? To find out who is telling the truth and who is lying through discussions, bluffing, targeted questioning, and observing body language. In addition, we might also bring a few standard deduction games to the table, which focus on razor-sharp logic, combining clues, and solving puzzles rather than reading people. **What to expect:** Pure practice instead of dry theory: No complicated rulebooks to study beforehand—all games will be explained directly and simply on-site. Playful self-discovery: Test your intuition, sharpen your people skills, and experiment with your own power of persuasion. Tons of fun: Experience a dynamic evening full of thrills, twists, and great conversations. Whether you are a master bluffer or an absolute beginner—come by, play along, and learn the art of reading people from a whole new perspective!
