The game consists of 96 small cards, each with a Proverb written upon it.

One player is selected to leave the room and be the Guesser. All other players choose one of the Proverbs from the box. Each of these players, in order, are given ONE word from the chosen Proverb, and then the Guesser is invited back in.

The Guesser is then to ask one player at a time a Question. The player must answer him, but he must include the word from the Proverb he was given, in his answer. The Guesser continues asking Questions to players, to which they answer with inclusion of the given Proverb word, until the Guesser can figure out and cite The Proverb. The player who gave the final answer, which allowed the Guesser to cite the correct Proverb, is then the Guesser, and play repeats.
