Games & Couples was developed by pyschologist & avid Gamer Colin Auschrat. He recognized that the act of playing cooperative games together provides many opportunities to apply the principles of Gottman Couples Therapy in a casual, relaxed, FUN way.
The Climbers, by Capstone Games, is a strategy game where you try to climb the highest before your opponent! In this video, Colin walks you through the game and how to build a fun date night around it, in addition to talking about ways the game can help you improve communication with your romantic partner.
In this episode, Colin discusses how the act of selecting a game together can help couples with their communication skills, such as telling your partner what kind of gaming you prefer and if there is a style of gaming (cooperative vs. competitive) that you prefer.
