Description
Play is in teams of two. Each person has a deck of picture cards. Each deck has the same set of pictures. There is also a deck of word cards with words like "marriage", "de facto", and "pimple".
A word is chosen and each player chooses 2-5 cards from his/her deck. Teams score points for choosing the same pictures, and score extra points for putting the pictures in the same order (from most to least important).
The board is used to keep track of the score, and to dictate how many pictures a team may select. First team to the end wins.

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- cooperative word association — Players have the same cards. They pick a clue card, roll a die, and state the topic. They then look through their cards (photos, words, colors) and place them in front of themselves and a partner. Points are awarded based on whether the cards are in the same spot in their row as their partner's. Matching more cards in the same spot yields more points.
