[Essay] Introducing an Amusing Game

This is a fascinating form of entertainment that can be enjoyed by any number of people (though more is merrier). It’s casual and can be played anytime, anywhere, with hilariously unexpected results. Here’s how it goes:

Once, I and four of my siblings—five of us in total—decided to play this game. We started by preparing small pieces of paper and pencils. Each person wrote their name on a piece of paper (my brother, sister-in-law, my two other brothers, and sister, respectively) and put it in a pile. We shuffled the pile and then each drew a name. Next, each person wrote down a location (such as the kitchen, on the bed, in the garden, on the roof, or at school). After mixing, we did the same with actions, such as watching a play, weeping, shouting, riding a horse, or doing laundry. With everything combined, the results were incredibly amusing and made for great laughter and entertainment.
