How to Play
This game is designed to facilitate meaningful discussions and engagement within groups.
General Rules for Play:
-
Read & Respond: Always read the question out loud and give every participant a chance to answer.
-
Voting Questions: For any questions that involve voting, the answer that receives the most votes wins.
Discussion Guidelines (Applies to all discussion-based play):
-
No Judging: It's absolutely crucial to listen, discuss, and have fun without judgment. We are all unique individuals with different opinions and experiences, and that's okay!
-
Respect & Privacy: Always respect others' viewpoints. Keep answers shared within the group to foster trust and closeness.
-
Bible Support (Optional): Feel free to share relevant Bible passages to support or back up your answers if you wish.
-
Time Limits:
-
For large groups, each person should aim for 3 minutes or less per question.
-
For smaller groups, especially when discussing "Stories" category cards, you can extend this to up to 5 minutes per person per question.
-
Share the Conversation: If one person has dominated the conversation three times in a row, they should kindly skip the next question to allow others to contribute.
