Setup:
-
Print two copies of the Guess Neu game board. We recommend laminating them if you don't want to print out two new copies every time you play,
-
Give each player a board and a dry erase marker.
Gameplay:
-
Each player secretly selects one neurologic condition from their own board. The goal is to be the first to correctly identify the condition chosen by your opponent.
-
Players take turns asking yes/no questions about clinical or pathophysiologic features listed on the board. Use each answer to narrow down the possibilities.
-
After each response, the guessing player crosses off any conditions that have been ruled out.
-
The first player to eliminate all but one condition and correctly guess their opponent’s chosen diagnosis wins.
