Why do some people have unique experiences with Ouija board games?

Question

Some people claimed to have experienced things happening even when playing the online version of it.

I just did the online version several times out of curiosity and it was a pure waste of time. On one version, the board mistook me for a man when asking if am I man or woman, gave random answers (even wrong answers), etc. On another version, I spoke loud and clear, I positioned my finger on the Ouija planchette and didn't move at all; no sound, no voice, no nothing... all silent.

I don't believe in ghost nor magical beings but damn, I was still expecting something. I really wanted something to happen. Nothing but a waste of time. Nothing like what some people claimed on their comments happened.

I had an experience with the Oija board. I had bought it before quarantine and then never used it. Until the lights went out in my apartment so I thought what better time to use it. I took it out and looked up a guide. I turned on some strawberry candles to set the mood.

It worked the thing was actually moving on its own. I started to play I spy with the ghost because why not. It was all normal I spy game until, i saw it. Kinda I hope it was my imagination. I told the ghost I spy with my little eye to eyes in the dark. The planchette started to spell C. O. R. R. E. C. T. Then boom the light came back on I quickly moved the planchette to goodbye, and waited for something. After like 2 mins I called my friends and told them to take it I’ll leave it out side. They picked it up and I haven’t seen it since. Nothing has happened either. This is a made up story, and just like that I got your attention. Moral of the story (PEOPLE JUST WANT ATTENTION) even when it’s fake.

So do you bring up the board on the screen of an iPad and put it on the table so everyone can touch it or what? I don't see how this could be transfered to a digital interface.

I opened the app on my cell and started playing with it. It's an online application.

An app will obviously be programmed with an algorithm to function a certain way. Fuuuck, there's one born every minute isn't there?
My parents had an actual ouija board. When I was a kid, my brother and I found it in the basement in some boxes of crap and asked my mother what it was. I distinctly remember one summer, we had a lot of relatives staying at the house for Christmas (think sort of like the Griswold family) and my brother and I were kicked out of our respective bedrooms so certain guests could sleep in those rooms and we were condemned to sleep in the basement. It was pretty big and there was a lot of fun stuff down there to keep us occupied like old videogame consoles, comic books, toys and dusty VHS tapes etc so it wasn't all bad. Eventually we remembered the Ouija board and we hatched a plan to learn how to move the glass undetected and then play it with our friends. So we got pretty good at doing that and then I don't know where he went because he wasn't there for it but I had a few friends from around the neighbourhood, boys and girls and probably cousins cause or the Christmas over and I got this thing out and scared the shit out of them all with answers telling them they'll die and go to hell and have their souls eaten and stuff. If was a blast. One girl got really scared and I got in trouble over it. Fun times though.
