Players walk around, chanting words from cards. You may not say any other words, but are allowed to show cards, or make simple gestures and of course you can add intonation/pauses. When you find other players that have words that might combine together, you have made a connection! This connection might be fleeting: you might walk away from each other and break the connection, deciding to find another - better - word. Eventually, you will find other players whose words combine well with yours. By changing the timing of when you say your word, make a phrase/sentence and then give each other a thumbs up and lay the cards on a table to create the next line of the poem. Once the cards run out, the game is over. If you want to score, you can give yourselves pts for how many other people you made a connection with in each line, with a x5 bonus if you make anyone laugh or anyone declares that line their favourite. One deck works for 10-20ish players. Combine decks for more players. —description from the designer
