Bait Bazi is a verbal game and a genre of Urdu poetry played by composing verses of Urdu poems. The game is common among Urdu speakers in Pakistan and India. The game starts with the first person reciting a stanza of a poem. The next player has to reply with another verse starting with the last letter of the verse used by the previous player and so on. A verse that has already been used in a game may not be repeated. The rules used by experienced players can be more stringent, such as allowing the use of only one poet's verses or of one theme.
