The game is simple. Each round, one player asks a question from a black card, and everyone else answers with their funniest white card. HOW TO PLAY - Before the start of the game, each player receives 10 Light Cards. - One player is randomly selected and assigned as a Card Guru for that round. The Guru takes the Dark Card and then reads its contents aloud. It can be a question or an "insert-missing-word" phrase. - The rest of the players are determined with the answer to the question or the missing word by choosing the Light Card on their devices. - After the answers from all the players have been received, the Card Guru announces the results of the "crossing" of Dark and Light Cards. For the full effect, the Guru must do this with the correct intonation. When everyone laughed properly and inserted their witty comments, the Guru chooses the answer he likes best. - In the end, the right to be a Guru is passed on to the next player in line.
