Plan your next We, Junk Artists session
Our independent guide offers focused observations that let you compare the game’s core systems. Use the exercises below to notice subtle differences in mode flow, material impact, audio feedback, player dynamics, and Steam integration, helping your group get the most out of each session.
01 / THE GUIDE
Mode Flow Comparison
Play one round in the standard collage mode, then immediately start a Design & Guess round. Note how the single‑click start changes the pacing and whether the interface shift alters how quickly teammates guess.
- Try both standard and Design & Guess modes in the same session to see which fits your group's rhythm.
- Use the one‑click start of Design & Guess when you want a fast‑reset between rounds.
02 / THE GUIDE
Material Brightness Test
Create three collages: one using only ordinary junk, one using other junk, and one mixing both. Observe how the visual brightness varies and whether any set influences guess speed.
- Browse the full material library before a match to discover unexpected visual options.
- Mix ordinary and unusual junk to create contrast that may help teammates guess faster.
03 / THE GUIDE
Sticker Sound Observation
During a lobby wait, place several different stickers on artworks. Listen to each unique sound and compare how the variety of notes affects the overall atmosphere.
- Use stickers to highlight artworks you enjoy; the accompanying sound adds a clear audible cue for others.
- Observe how different stickers produce distinct notes, turning the lobby into a light sound board.
04 / THE GUIDE
Team Size Impact
Run two sessions, one with four players and another with eight. Track discussion length, guess response time, and overall engagement to see how player count shapes the experience.
- For larger groups, consider splitting into two teams to keep discussion manageable.
- Experiment with PvP mode if you prefer a competitive edge to the guessing phase.

Steam Feature Check
Enable Steam Cloud, then play a short match. After quitting, reopen the game to see whether your progress persists, keeping in mind that the source does not specify which data Steam Cloud synchronizes.
- Check the achievement list for optional goals you can pursue during play.
- Enable Steam Cloud if you wish to store your game progress according to Steam’s default behavior.
