How to Play

First, the player works through the categories and writes down four options for each.

For each category, they should pick two dream examples of the category. For example, the "Holiday-Ruining Event" may be a sick Santa Claus or an injured reindeer. They should also pick two nightmare examples, like a giant squid monster or a Christmas tree shortage.

Once all the categories are filled with four options, the player draws a quick spiral in the spiral space until someone tells them to stop (if you're playing alone, just draw with your eyes closed and stop randomly). Starting at the top of your spiral and working down, count how many lines there are in your spiral. That's your magic number Write it in.

Now, start on the word "Metropolitan City" and count to your magic number. Count the words, "Metropolitan City, Away on Vacation, Santa's Workshop, Home" separately and then count each of the options. So if your magic number is 6, your finger will land on the second "Sidekick" option.

Draw a line through the option your finger landed on. Now keep counting to 6, crossing out the sixth option each time. The next option to cross out for 6 would be the fourth "Holiday-Ruining Event" option and so on.

Continue counting until you have eliminated all but one option in every category.
