Game of giving a title to a pictorial work

Abstract

The game comprises game sessions including: submitting a representation of a pictorial work; making an input field available to each player; each player giving a title to the pictorial work shown; and collecting and storing the title given by the player. The game may be implemented in particular by computer means comprising a remote game site communicating with terminals used by the players, in particular within an application for accessing and dialoguing with a social network. The site displays a plurality of titles that have already been given by other players to a work that is displayed, and a player quantifies preferences for those titles either by a binary “like/unlike” type evaluation or by putting them into an order of preference. The site generates a chart ranking the titles that have already been given as a function of the quantified evaluations as transmitted in this way.

1 . A game comprising at least one game session corresponding to the following steps:
 submitting a representation of a pictorial work;   making an input field available to each player;   each player giving a title to the pictorial work shown; and   collecting and storing the title given by the player.

         4 . The game of  claim 1 , wherein the game is implemented by physical media comprising: a set of cards, each carrying a representation of a pictorial work; a game board on which the cards may be placed; and writing means including said input field, which means are made available to the players. 
     
     
         5 . The game of  claim 1 , wherein the game is implemented by computer means comprising a remote game site and a terminal accessible to each player, the terminal comprising: a screen suitable for displaying the representation of the pictorial work; input means including said input field; and remote transmission means for exchanging data with the game site. 
     
     
         6 . The game of  claim 5 , wherein the game is implemented at the terminal end by a widget type application. 
     
     
         7 . The game of  claim 5 , wherein the game is implemented within an application for accessing and dialoguing with a social network. 
     
     
         8 . The game of  claim 5 , wherein the steps of a game session comprise:
 the game site transmitting to the terminal the representation of the pictorial work;   displaying the representation on the screen of the terminal;   the input means of the terminal receiving the title given by the player;   sending the title as input to the terminal to the game site; and   storing and processing the title by the game site.   
     
     
         9 . The game of  claim 5 , further including displaying to a player, together with said representation of the pictorial work, a plurality of titles that have already been given by other players to the same pictorial work during prior sessions.
