  1. Place the board in the center.
  2. Each player picks a cute character piece and roll the die to see who goes first.
  3. On your turn, roll the die and move forward that many spaces.
  4. The space you land on determines your challenge:
    1. Mystery Stroke Card – Guess the name of the symbol or character from partial image. 3 points
    2. Hidden Symbol Card – Find a character hidden in an image. 4 points
    3. Recall Quest Card – State a symbol that appeared earlier in the game. 5 points
  5. If you succeed, earn points and move forward! If not, put the card back into the pile.

Other remarks

  • The prototype in this presentation does not have a way to keep a score for players, therefore players MUST KEEP SCORES amongst themselves
  • All bills and cards except for the challenge cards are draggable.
  • The recall challenge does not actually have any cards to draw. Players must rely on each other's memories and the cards they have on hand to check each other's answers. A REPEAT of an answer already said by another player is NOT ALLOWED.
  • The hidden challenge does not have a lot of cards shown and are not clickable. Images may also be hard to see. May need some feedback in regards to have this can be improved.
  • The memory challenge will show the answer when clicking on the cards after flipping them. Please do not look at the answers if you DO NOT KNOW and cannot provide it in 45 seconds to ensure fairness for the other players. If you do not know the answer and DO NOT WANT TO WAIT, please just click the return button to go back to the game board.
  • It is RECOMMENDED to play as a TEAM for smoother experience
