Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
  • dexterity / stacking — players place cards onto a garbage can or into a room; holes in cards determine visibility and stability; collapse can occur.
  • endgame reset — game progresses with room full of cards and eventually all cards transferred to trash.
  • take-that / competitive interaction — interactions involve forcing others to take cards out of rooms; entertaining player interventions.
