How to play
Once players decide the order they will proceed, the first player will say a word. The second player will then add another word, along with the third, fourth and so on, until an (often humorous) story is created to everyone’s satisfaction. Multiple rounds will usually be necessary with smaller groups.
This game is similar to Consequences, NeverEnding Story, and Unfolding Story.
