Overview

This game is much like the few years later published What Were You Thinking? The objective is for teammates to think of the same list of five words when viewing a common card (e.g. a picture of an apple). For each matching entry, the partners move forward on the game board. Some editions include peel-up erasing tablets, others a simple writing pad and the players are expected to provide pens or pencils.
