What it feels like

Settle in. Two little tales are about to be told, the kind you'd hear by a fire. Listen closely, because when the stories end, the questions begin... and only the careful listeners will know.

How to play

  1. Watch the scene and read its caption aloud. Every question comes from it.
  2. Each question has four answers. Everyone picks A, B, C or D: out loud, on paper, or on your phone.
  3. Reveal the answer, then tap everyone who got it.

Scoring: 2 points for each right answer. A mystery's last question asks you to work it out.

What you need

3 to 10 people and one phone, tablet or laptop to pass around — or everyone on their own phone in a room. Nothing to download, no accounts. The best lines can be sealed into your group's Almanac and come back in later games.
