Welcome to the Crowdsourcing Mornings segment! Every weekday morning, Geek Alabama talks about and features one crowdsourcing project from crowdsourcing sites such as, Indiegogo, and others. The hope with Crowdsourcing Mornings is to feature and help a project be successful and reach its fundraising goal. Please enjoy today’s featured project!

Have you noticed that happiness and well-being have largely become private, theoretical pursuits?
We read self-help books, listen to podcasts, maybe go to therapy … and then we’re left alone to translate insight into action. We journal. We track habits. And despite good intentions, real change often stalls.
Research across psychology and neuroscience consistently shows two things:
play accelerates learning, and social context amplifies change. We don’t learn, grow, or adapt best in isolation. Instead we do it through interaction, repetition, and shared experience – ideally in a fun and playful environment.
That’s why we created The Well-being Game – a card game grounded in well-being science and deliberately designed around group dynamics, conversation, and small real-world actions. It turns abstract ideas into something you actually do together, through targeted questions, playful challenges, and structured interaction.
NOT JUST ANOTHER DECK OF QUESTIONS
Here are 5 reasons why The Well-being Game is different:
1. Backed by science: No fluff – it’s grounded in Dr. Carol D. Ryff’s well-being model, one of the most respected psychological frameworks out there.
2. It’s a game – not a workbook: Self-reflection becomes playful: you draw cards, take action to complete your Secret Mission, keep score and use Bonus cards to gain extra advantage over other players. It works because it’s fun.
3. Real actions, not just talk: You win points by doing things that actually improve your life.
4. It grows with you: Every time you play, the experience shifts – depending on your company, mood, energy, or life season. It’s not a one-and-done tool.
5. It turns groupthink into a superpower: You play with others to reflect and work through your own life challenges – together. It’s about honest support and practical ideas, not small talk or surface-level advice.
As of May 7th, this project has raised $8,500 of their $5,874 goal. This project has 22 days left to raise as much as it can. For a pledge of $18, you will get one print and play. For a pledge of $25, you will get one base game.
