First decide who will begin as the Narrator. All other players blindly draw three white Story Cards. The Narrator draws a scarlet Starter Card and reads it aloud to begin the storyline.

Each player then submits a Story Card face-down. Shuffling before reading, the Narrator selects a favorite to continue the storyline and reads it aloud.

If your card is selected to continue the storyline, re-up to thee white Story Cards with the option of swapping out one or both of your remaining cards. If your card is not selected, tough s#*t, you'll have to make do with only your remaining cards.

Repeat this for (at least) one more round. The card selected to complete the storyline on the final round (providing its fantastic conclusion) earns the scarlet Starter Card as a point. Congratulations, you've climaxed!

Pass the Narrator role to the next player. All other players re-up to three new white Story Cards and continue.

The first player to have a threesome wins! Collect three points with scarlet Starter Cards, that is.
