How to play

  1. 1

    One person narrates an everyday story out loud.

  2. 2

    Everyone else is the soundtrack: humming, tapping and making noises at the right moments.

    The narrator can point at a player for a solo.

  4. 4

    Swap narrators every two minutes.

How it's scored

Award a point to whoever matched the moment best.

What you need

Nothing at all.

A taste of the cards

  • Getting ready for a job interview
  • Walking to the shops and back
  • The last five minutes before guests arrive

5 cards in the deck — PlayMe deals them out as you play.

Tips for the host

  • • Start with a simple story so the soundtrack can follow.
  • • Anyone can point at anyone — that's how the solos happen.

Everyone in? Let's play.

You'll get the rules, the cards, a timer and a scoreboard — no account needed.
