Ben and Trevor tackle the "Trust No One" theme for an upcoming game jam, using a random word generator to spark several high-concept designs:

a puzzle game involving blocks of ice and a suspicious AI assistant, where the player must determine if the instructions provided to navigate the room are trustworthy;

a high-stakes golf game set in Florida where you must manage a manual scorecard and determine if your opponent is cheating on their shots;

a conspiracy-theory-driven investigation where the player navigates a world of "deep state" paranoia, trying to distinguish between reality and fabrication;

and a unique "adventure phone" experience, where the game is played entirely through a mobile interface, featuring text messages, a GPS, and a T9 keypad mode to navigate a narrative of conflicting information.

Join Ben and Trevor as they explore the intersection of narrative, game design, and the art of not trusting anyone.
