You’re online streamers known for streaming funny falls of distracted pedestrians on the street. As they are watching your live stream on their devices, they bump into each other, creating entertaining materials for you to capture live on camera! What a wonderful circle of Schadenfreude, isn’t it just beautiful?
 
Schadenfreude is a 2-4 players board game about Online Attention-Seeking and Screen Addiction. Utilising satire and dark humour to interpret the serious topics, it encourages audiences to open up and lighten the mood for difficult but necessary social conversations. The story describes a cycle in which pedestrians watch online fail videos on their screens while walking; being distracted, they bump into each other, becoming the “failing materials” for other online viewers to enjoy. The game comes with 8 Character Types, 4 available Social Media Platforms with unique abilities, and a detachable magnetic cover that doubles as the playing board. Maximal satire in a minimal box!
