Use the pink markers and mark all interactions with the TikTok For You page that you know!
Discuss in the group!
The legend on the game board briefly explains the symbols of the interactions.

2. Evaluate interactions (Green)
Use the green markers and evaluate the interactions! What influence do the interactions have on the recommendation of similar videos?
Discuss in the group!
👍 denotes a positive influence on the algorithm
👎 denotes a negative influence on the algorithm.
Use the question mark (?), if you are unsure.
Use the 🚫 if you believe, the interaction is blocking the video from your recommendations.

3. Weighting interactions (Algorithm/Blue)
Use the blue markers (1–3) to weight interactions that influence the recommendations. You can only weight interactions that have a thumbs up/down. What do you think the TikTok recommendation algorithm finds particularly important!
Discuss in the group!
