MY LATEST GAMING OBSESSION: CLUCKS

I don’t know about you, but my game playing has been exclusively mobile lately. Since my addiction to Scrabble with Friends is wearing off, I was super pumped to give this new game (by AOL!) a spin.

Dubbed “the first social video game,” Clucks is like Taboo. You know, the card game where you have to describe a word to your teammate without using the word or any obvious words associated with it. What’s cool about Clucks is that you get to record a video of yourself describing the word and then send it to your friend – but you only get 12 seconds to do it. 

While in transit, the video is scanned using voice recognition technology to make sure you didn’t cheat. Cool, right? Your friend guesses the word. The process repeats. Over and over again. Addicting! Don’t believe me? Watch this video. You’ll be downloading the game before it’s over.
