Carpe Diem, Safely
Being a university student during a pandemic isn’t exactly ideal. It’s proably
safe to say that when we all enrolled for university, none of us really expected
to undergo online lectures, cancelled social events, or closed clubs/
bars. In this pamphlet, you will find clarification on the latest corona guidelines,
as well as how to have as much fun as possible during lockdown!
For all the people that are in the Netherlands, you may have noticed that autumn
is upon us. Autumn is the season where we transition from being outdoors to cosy
evenings with the radiator on. Of course it would have been nice to spend those
nights with friends all huddled up together on the couch and watch a movie, but for
that we will have to wait till next autumn. To have fun with people you are not limited
to physical meetings. Even though they are still allowed, if according to the guidelines
below, there are many other ways to have fun. In this pamphlet we will show
you some of the most fun online games you can play with your friends, and to make
it accessible for everybody we selected party games usable from the comfort of your
phone . We went out and picked our top 4 of the most fun corona proof games to play
out of the comfort of your own home.

Among Us
Among Us is an online multiplayer social
murder mystery game which has become increasingly
popular over the past few months. Comparable
to the real life A group of crew mates try to complete their
respective tasks in a spaceship, but within the group there
are several impostors. They will try to sabotage the crew
mates’ tasks and kill them. The goal is to find the impostors
and vote the most suspicious ones out.
Snapchat ‘filter
games’
It’s not a popular or well-known
feature of Snapchat, but it can be fun to
play around with! Snapchat offers around 5
different games to play in a group or with
a friend. These games are simple, but
they’re quite fun to play!
House Party
This social network platform offers
the possibility of meeting with a group in
which you can play games together. Usually you
get a notification when a friend is ‘in the house’,
so that you can meet with him/her. Oftentimes
you end up with a whole group
which is very nice.
Discord
Discord is the perfect app for meeting
with (a lot of) people. It was originally created
for gamers, so certain features may appear strange
to some. A prominent feature of Discord includes being
able to create several ‘channels’ within a server, so if you
are with a big group, you can split up in several smaller
groups and switch to other rooms if you like. There
is even the possibility of playing games such
as Cards Against Humanity!
