This game is a party game played with at least 3 players in which you must argue a point to a group of people in order to get them to take your side. This would be done through voice based chat, along with small avatars that would be able to convey the thoughts and feelings of the other players. Only the person attempting to convince the others would be able to speak, however the others would be able to ask questions and comment through text. This would be shown in a speech bubble coming from their avatar. To begin, each player will pick which side of the argument they are on. The person attempting to convince the others would have 5 minutes to state their case, and then the other players will pick which side they are on. The game would then compare the end results to the beginning, and the main player would receive a point for each player they convinced. Points would be deducted for players that changed to the other side, and any players that stayed on their original side would not influence their points. This would repeat for as many players are in the game, so each player has a chance to convince the others. Once everybody has tried to convince the others the player with the most points would be the winner and the game would be over.
