Interesting idea for a game
So here's something interesting. Can you tell whats going on on this video?The game is called His and Her Disconnected Conversations Here's my theory of whats happening.Its basically a sort of weird (and wonderful) take on a matching game. The left hand side is a guy. The right hand side is a girl. When you start, you get three different couples. The couples come together and start talking. Only they start in random positions and talk about different topics. Presumably if you are japanese, you can understand what the conversations mean, but they will appear disjointed because they will be out of sync between couples. You then swap the different characters around until you think all of the conversations are being held normally. I presume an early match adds extra score. It appears that once there is a confirmed match, the conversations accelerate to the end. What a brilliant idea!! Hats off to the creator.

It's a combination of "speed dating" and Yente the matchmaker from "Fiddler on the Roof".
