Overview, basic game: Everyone draws 5. 1st player draws top card from deck as the random starting seed. Card types = obvious guidance. Pick a card from your hand + one trait from each category. Tell a paragraph or two fitting that. Vote on best storyteller at end, they end it.
You can also draw them for solo play or improv GMing as an inspiration oracle. The face colors make them easy to sort into separate piles if you wish. There's also a solo roleplaying add-on in testing, but we'll get that too! First, let's talk about the cards themselves a little.

So much in fact that their main dude Gary went on record being like "this game isn't for women" and pretty much held firm on that belief.
