Die animierten Bilder geben einen guten Eindruck vom Verlauf des Spiels.
Das
Hasbro Journal No 10 (1999) zeigt wie Twister promotet wird.
TWISTER sorgt auf Parties und im Handel für Stimmung
.
Da ich weder Bravo, Popkorn noch das POW-Magazin lese, hat diese PR Welle mich
nicht erreicht. Twister ist in Deutschland ein Spiel für Kinder.

Virtual Twister
Session 3, was titled Networked Reality Systems and featured
three presentations, two virtual reality applications (Virtual
Polis, by Loeffler of Carnegie Mellon University and Interspace,
by Suguwara, et. al. of the NTT Human Interface Lab) and a
networked virtual space implementation of the "Twister" parlor
game, by Fujihata and Suzuki of Keio University.
The networked reality implementation of the Twister game
consists of having human operators manipulate, via joysticks,
tripedal clones of themselves in a virtual space equipped with a
virtual "Twister" mat. The system was demonstrated on 18
February, 1994 by linking the site of IMAGINA '94 (Monte Carlo,
France) with Keio University in Yokohama.
Both the Interspace and Twister Game presentations had
associated demonstration systems available during session
breaks.

Ein kleiner Tip: für den Spielleiter lohnt es sich, ab und zu ein
Auge auf die "Gruppe von Laokoon" zu werfen, er sieht dann, welche
Anzeige des Drehpfeiles die grösste Heiterkeit bei den Zuschauern
auslösen würde. Eine entsprechende "Manipulation" (tz, tz, tz)
wird hiermit generös verziehen!

Kritiker: Andreas Keirat
Für Erwachsene ist das Spiel nichts, da diese meist nicht
so gelenkig sind und sich über lange Zeit verrenken können.
Kinder sind jedoch begeistert davon und können vom Spiel gar
nicht genug bekommen. Allerdings braucht man eine relativ
grosse Spielfläche im Wohnzimmer oder Kinderzimmer, um die
Matte auszurollen.
Fazit: Ein ideales Kinderspiel.
Erwachsene spielen es nicht gerne, Kinder sind nur begeistert.

TWISTER by MB GAMES
For fun-loving people of all ages Twister is the only game where you
are the game pieces as you and your opponents get tied up in knots.
Spin the spinner to move your body around the mat.
The last player to fall wins. For 2-4 players.
- http://www.cyberpoint.co.uk/pied/rnib/rnib-58.htm
The Twister mat has 24 coloured dots in four rows. Players
move hands or feet to various positions on the mat as
determined by the Twister spinner. The object of the game
is to outmanoeuvre opponents and be the last player
standing on the mat.

Upping the Ante: With kids aged six and older,
play a "twister" type of game, asking them
to put their left foot on the letter C and
their right hand on H, for example. Add even more
spice to the game by joining in yourself and
letting the children give you hopping
instructions. The kids will think it's hilarious!
