Gameplay in Brief:

Players take turns as the "storyteller." That player chooses one of the beautifully illustrated cards from his hand and describes it with a word or phrase. Each of the other players chooses a card from their own hands which they think most closely matches the storyteller's description. The cards are then shuffled together, and everyone other than the storyteller votes on which card they believe inspired the description. Points are given to players whose cards are chosen, and to players who correctly identify the storyteller's card. If no players (or all players) select the storyteller's card, he scores zero points.
