Great personality games! You just answer a question, and it tells you about yourself. Do it with other people, as a way of gettign to know each other. It is cold reading...like fortune telling...but it is a lot of fun. The first book is better but they second has a couple fo my favorite tests.
a fun little book that is enjoyable to go through with a good friend - you will learn a lot about each other and about yourselves
Fun little book of psychological puzzles. Kokology is a japanese science in which clues to your personality can be garnered from specialy created quizes. They are fun in a group setting, especially with women.
Fun but really, it's a bunch of poo.
