Kind Words

I'm fascinated by all sorts of digital experiments. Kind Words is the latest to have caught my attention. It's supposed to be a game. Instead it's more like an anonymous and asynchronous global chat room wrapped in a game-like container.

The goal—if you can even call it a goal—is to ask and reply to questions to strangers who are looking for something. Sometimes it's advice, sometimes it's a word of encouragement and sometimes it's just to be listened.

It's an intriguing concept and the execution is lovely even though my mac is constantly trying to get airborne while I'm "playing".
