Instructions

[hot_mess_express]

What are we doing?
✦ A dumb, party-style BOARD GAME in mixed-team tables. Table assignments to follow! Coming late and leaving early is fine, this is a chill game!

✦ At the start of each turn, roll 1 D6. Move your token along the corresponding number of squares, and — if you land on pink or yellow — PICK A CARD and do what it tells you. If you fail to complete the conditions stated on the card, move back two squares and take a penalty. You don't need to pick another card. If you land on a blue square at any time, have fun.

✦ You can choose to move your token backwards OR forwards. However, you can't do both in one turn (i.e. by moving forward four and then back two if you rolled a six).

✦ To take a shortcut, you must land on the square in front of it. ie to take the first shortcut, you need to land on the yellow.

✦ Any props or items you may need can mysteriously(!) be found in small wooden chest under your table. It's like a bag of holding in there.

✦ Characters can leave their table to chat with whoever they like, whenever they like, except when there's a blue square in effect.

✦ Powers are on!

✦ Turn-in is due at 3pm PST on Sunday! Please keep track of: how many turns you took to reach the end, and how many forfeits you took.

Table Assignments

You're free to wander to other tables to chat with fellow trial-goers, but tasks must be completed with tablemates!]
