MATERIALS
Stickiness
Paper & pen
Cutting tool
SETUP (GROUP)
Gather players.
Print out the PDF.
(You don't have to print it.)
Cut the paper into big strips of equal size.
On each strip, write a character archetype in large letters.
Fold each strip in half down the middle (so the writing is inside).
TO BEGIN, CONTINUE, AND END GAMEPLAY, EACH INDIVIDUAL PLAYER MUST COMPLY:
Draw one strip and then, without looking, unfold it and affix it to your forehead.
Use the fold to make sure the writing side faces out. Players can assist other players with right-side-upness.
Silently read all other players' character archetypes. Engage in improvisational roleplay as your own character archetype.
For any skill-and/or-luck-based task, is the player whose character is attempting it in-character in doing so? All other players vote.
The game ends when you're done. You're all winners, except if you TOLD SOMEONE WHAT THEIR CHARACTER ARCHETYPE IS. If you did that, you lost.

Instead of drawing slips at random, players can
- write the archetype for the player to their left
- write the archetype for the player to their right
- write the archetype for the player across from them
All players should do the same or it will get confusing.

Instead of playing in-person with names hidden on slips of paper, players can play using Discord by setting their own server nicknames to randomly-assigned character archetypes enciphered using rot-13 or a similar cipher unknown but accessible to all playing. Then players can decipher all names but their own and add a Note to the profile of each other user about that.

(Before purchasing, please note that the PDF download is literally a blank PDF and all game rules are contained here in this description.)
