EMO+ is a board game to help understand, process emotions - Yanko Design
Briefly

EMO+ is a board game designed to aid emotional expression for everyone, especially those on the autism spectrum. It utilizes tactile figures and illustrated emotion cards to help players convey feelings in a low-pressure setting. The gameplay involves collaborative storytelling around real-life scenarios, allowing participants to explore emotions without the necessity of right answers. The game is not competitive; instead, it promotes shared understanding among families, friends, and couples, offering a creative way to navigate and discuss challenging emotions.
EMO+ started as a tool for adults on the autism spectrum, helping them interpret and express emotions together without the pressure of finding the 'right' words.
Designer Jeni Huang created EMO+ as a playful board game to transform emotional expression into a hands-on experience for families, friends, and couples.
Players use illustrated emotion cards like 'Happy,' 'Surprised,' or 'Disappointed' to create a story about how characters feel in specific scenarios.
There is no winner in EMO+; the game emphasizes progressing together while fostering shared understanding and exploration of tricky emotions.
