Why it works

Everyone votes on every card, so nobody waits for a turn and nobody is singled out. There are no points and no right or wrong choice, and anyone may pass. The host page names the few cards to leave out when the group needs lighter subjects.

Made for: Activity directors and senior living groups; also a family visit, where you read the card and they tell you something you did not know.
