🎯 ObjectiveCreate the funniest short stories possible using 3 imposed words, and avoid elimination each round!

🔧 Setup

  • Minimum 3 players (4 to 8 is ideal for maximum fun).

  • No materials required, just imagination (optional: phone or paper for notes).


🚀 How to PlayTurn Order:Decide who starts (e.g., dice roll, clockwise order, etc.).

First Round:

  • Player 1 picks 3 random words (objects, animals, actions, places—anything goes!).

  • They give them to Player 2, who must create a short funny story using all 3 words naturally.

  • Then, Player 2 chooses 3 new words and gives them to Player 3.

  • This continues until everyone has told their story.


Elimination Vote:

  • After each full round, players vote for the least funny or least successful story.

  • The player with the most votes is eliminated.

  • In case of a tie, flip a coin or roll a die to decide.


Following Rounds:

  • Continue with the same structure using remaining players.

  • As the group shrinks, the stories tend to get even more creative and competitive.


🏆 End of Game

When only 2 players remain, it’s time for the final duel:

  • Each gives the other 3 words to include in their final story.

  • Eliminated players become the jury and vote for the ultimate winner 🏅

💡 Optional Rules & Bonus Modes

  • Speed Mode: 1-minute max to create the story.

  • 🤝 Team Mode: Two players team up to craft a story with 6 words (3 each).

  • 🎭 Theme Mode: Use themed rounds like “Horror,” “Sci-Fi,” or “Office Life.”


📣 Example Round:

1️⃣ Player 1 gives: "Panda" – "Tractor" – "Toothpaste"

2️⃣ Player 2 says:"Yesterday, I saw a panda driving a tractor while brushing his teeth with strawberry-flavored toothpaste. It was the weirdest farm ever!"Then they give: "Banana" – "Wizard" – "Roller skates" to Player 3.
