Bouba/Kiki is a cooperative communication game based on the psychological Bouba/Kiki Effect, which is the finding that people tend to make the same associations between sounds and shapes, irrespective of their language or culture. For example, people will tend to associate the nonsense word bouba with a rounded shape and kiki with a spiky shape.
The cards in Bouba/Kiki display a nonsense word on one side, and a simple illustration on the other. In the basic game, you are faced with a set of three of these words and one shape, and must decide which word goes best with the shape. Points are earned by choosing the same target as your teammates.
