Playing Sussed

This year we’re teaming up with Sussed, the award-winning conversation card game, to help get everyone talking about mental health on Time to Talk Day.

A small conversation about mental health has the power to make a big difference, and our Sussed: Time to Talk cards are a great way to break the ice. 

We have four special edition cards you can download from our website. You can use them in person or online.

Keep reading for ideas and tips on how to use the cards to get your friends, family and colleagues talking about mental health. 

How to play Sussed

  1. One player picks up a card and reads out a scenario
  2. Everyone else tries to figure out how the reader would most likely respond
  3. The reader reveals the correct answer and everyone chats about who chose what and why

Spark a one-on-one conversation

Some people can find it awkward to talk about mental health. This can make getting the conversation going a little tricky. Why not start with a game of Sussed: Time to Talk as an icebreaker? 

By starting the conversation with some odd and amusing scenarios, Sussed: Time to Talk cards can help to get everyone a little more comfortable.

Get a group talking

Lots of people still think that mental health problems aren’t relevant to them. This could make them feel unsure of how to join in the conversation.

Sussed: Time to Talk is a way to get everyone involved. Opening with an easy and fun game could make for a more inclusive and open conversation.
