Decorum
Decorum
Decorum is a delightfully tense, cooperative deduction game where you and your roommates decorate a shared space—without revealing your secrets. With hidden information and heart-to-heart reveals, achieving harmonious home decor becomes a thrilling and emotional puzzle.
Decorate beautifully. Communicate subtly. Make tactful changes and read your partner’s subtle reactions—can you fulfill everyone’s secret preferences or will tempers—and décor—clash?
How the Game Works
Each player holds secret conditions—preferences for décor elements like color, style, or object placement. On your turn, you make one change: add, remove, swap, paint, or pass (if you’re fulfilled). Then, your partner responds with either “I love it,” “I hate it,” or “Neutral.” Communication is limited to these reactions, so choose carefully.
After a fixed number of rounds—or sooner if tokens are spent—you may trigger a “Heart-to-Heart” where each player reveals one condition. Fulfill all conditions before hearts run out and the scenario ends to win—otherwise, peaceful cohabitation slips away.
