This is an almost pure story-telling game, competitive and collaborative at once. It relies on the players ( no GM ) to improvise a narrative and invent details that support or challenge it until a set of three storys are agreed, the player who has the most storys accepted "wins", (but really 'the play is the thing' ). The use of dice is extremely limited and nearly irrelevant.
I shared this game with a non-gamer friend and he and his creative writing course are amazed by it. If you know some of those sort of people this would be a good introduction to the world of RPG as it goes straight to the heart of the matter- adopting a role within an invented wolrd and working together with your friends to make interesting stories.
