BEFORE YOU PLAY
Simple paper setup
Print the Player Pack for your household and read the Host Guide first. Ordinary paper and pens are enough to begin. Where cards have borders, the adult can cut them apart or keep them on the original page for players to compare and mark.
An adult guides the story and decides whether to play entirely at a table. No special equipment or digital account is needed by children.
Play length and final print count have not been confirmed through physical printing and real-group play tests.
