Are you up for the game?


Just when you thought you know yourself well, comes "Kokology". What is "Kokology" and what makes it an interesting game?


According to Wikipedia, Kokology is the study of kokoro (Japanese: 心) which in aforementioned language means "mind" or "spirit". The series of Kokology books were created by Tadahiko Nagao and Isamu Saito,[1] a professor at Rissho and Waseda Universities in Japan and an author of a number of bestselling books regarding psychology and relationships.
The main focus is the analysis of the deep psyche. Using theories from Freud and Jung. Kokology Questions typically are "guided" Day Dreams or Submodalities
The books present a series of psychological and hypotheticals[2] that are designed to reveal one's hidden attitudes about sex, family, love, work, and other elements of one's life. It is essentially a game of self-discovery that can provide interesting, and often hilarious insight by answering questions to seemingly innocent topics.


Now, that's so much for a game. Though it was not designed for kids, it was surely designed for the young at heart.
