Problem solving games are challenges that ask players to think critically and use logic to overcome issues or answer riddles. Examples include sudoku, murder mysteries, and spaghetti towers. These games are also known as “problem solving exercises”, “problem and solution games” and “group problem solving activities.” What are the best problem solving games for groups? Popularity of the game led to several computer versions developed by Leisure Genius in 1987. Versions were released for the Commodore 64, [3] ZX Spectrum, [4] and Amstrad CPC. [5] You are eating a meal with important clients and/or your partner’s parents, and you want to impress. The individuals make you a dish that does not fit within your dietary restrictions, but you do not speak the same language and cannot explain why you do not want to eat.The game was featured in a first-season episode of Everybody Loves Raymond, "The Game". A version of the game called "Ethical Dilemma" appeared in an episode of Married...With Children. [8] 2 Broke Girls featured a bootleg version of the game called Scrumples. Scruples is clearly an intriguing and interesting classic game based on the dilemmas and the players playing the game. The idea is simple and that makes it an enjoyable experience although it could grow old over time. You are failing a class you were required to take but totally hate. You have an on-line exam. If you fail the exam, you will fail the class. You can cheat without anyone knowing. Do you do so and pass the class?

You decide not to hire someone because he's wearing a nose ring. When he asks why he didn't make it, do you give the real reason? Warning: I actually tired this once as a part of a business ethics workshop. While it worked pretty well for the majority of participants, two of them wouldn’t let it go, and the “debate” ended up spilling into the evening dinner. So play it with others at your own risk.Players are given five yellow cards apiece, each yellow card with a moral dilemma such as, "You accidentally damage a car in a parking lot. Do you leave a note with your name and phone number?" Each player also has a single red card, with either "YES", "NO", or "DEPENDS" printed upon it. The player must ask the question on a yellow card of the person whom the holder of the yellow card believes most likely to reply with the answer on the questioner's red card. The game thus tests how well players know each other. Due to the cultural aspect of the moral dilemma questions, Scruples was updated every five years, until the Millennium edition, which is the latest version. It contains 150 questions from four previous versions and 100 new questions.
