the waiting game.

The waiting game seeks to explore the situations that trap millions of people on an Everyday basis.

What is waiting? How are we waiting? What does it take to sit and wait?

Can the experience of waiting improve if we embrace it, instead of distracting ourselves?

The waiting game is not really a game by traditional definitions, it is much more of an activity. The game aims to make players aware of themselves while they are waiting. The game hopes to soothe players while they are waiting. It aims to show waiters that they are not alone.

The game works by asking multiple players the same simple questions about their current state at the same time. By answering the questions players are able to see who else is waiting, and create their own history of waiting.

The waiting game is a social system created by Nick Reid. It is an exploration into what can be considered the most disliked state in our modern society, the state of waiting.

This game is currently under development, but will be able to be played on any Java-enabled mobile phone or over the internet through this website.
