December 08, 2008: We played this game at a family gathering. After some squabbling about it being too difficult...everyone got the hang of it and we played for several hours. You have 90 seconds to write a convincing description of the origin of an expression like: "in the doldrums". You learn quickly to insert dates and word roots to fool your opponents. The challenge is the time limit. Some of the descriptions were so ridiculous, because you are forced to complete your origin quickly. You score points by both guessing the correct origin, and fooling the other players. Lots of fun!
