About the game
Description of game by Bruno Faidutti: So we had a pebble, a tooth brush, a fork, a lighter, a toy soldier, a die and two or three other items, and each player in turn had to use them to have the other guess an answer in a list of five such as Snow White and the seven Dwarves, the Sleeping Beauty, Little Red Riding Hood, The Brave Little Tailor, Cinderella. Like with some other games of the kind, such as the fantastic Wat und Dat, you don't believe it will work - and it works wonderfully.
