Game Play
Play takes the form of rotating around the group of players, each player adding an item of their choosing to a list. The item is then either allowed or disallowed by the player(s) familiar with the rules based upon the logic to the game. The basis of the game is to not only to remember the list, which can be difficult as the game progresses, but also to work out the logic behind what items are allowed.
For example, the game may start as such:
- Player 1: "I went to the shop and I bought an elephant's foot umbrella stand".
- Player 2: "I went to the shop and I bought an elephant's foot umbrella stand and a large orange plate".
- Player 1, or the player who knows the rules, would then allow or refuse the new item.
Play then continues in this manner until everybody has worked out the logic.
