Columbia Games Corpus

It consists of approximately 10 hours of spontaneous English conversation along with corresponding orthographic transcripts and annotation. Speech recordings are comprised of two subjects playing a series of computer games requiring verbal communication to achieve joint goals of identifying and moving images on the screen to reach a combined number of points.

Each player used a separate laptop computer and could not see the screen of the other player. Participants played two games: the Cards Game and the Objects Game. In the Cards Game, one participant described a card and depending on the task in the game, the second participant searched for the described card or tried to match it from cards shown on their screen.
