Players choose a dead poet to resurrect from obscurity by reaching the Center Ring and successfully overcoming the challenge of the Sphinx guarding the exit to the World of the Living.
Players become poets by creating their own poem in progress as they are prompted during game play!!
Prompts can come from great lines of poetry, random internet searches, or even from the last words of your recent text message!
Sabotage is also lurking– you might draw the card that makes your opponent move back 3 spaces or they may draw the prompt that allows them to give you a word you have to insert into your last line– or worse!
The Dead Poets you and your opponents are trying to rescue lived in different time periods and different countries, each with their unique poetry legacy to discover and inspire!
