The childhood game that crushes your adult brain.
"I'm going to Bangkok and I'm bringing a banana." "…a banana, a snake, and a hot air balloon." Each player repeats the full list in order, then adds one. By round 8 your brain is jelly. The Captain is the judge — hesitate too long or get the order wrong, and you're out.
01 — KEEP IT IN YOUR HEAD
No typing. No app screen. Just memory.
The whole point is the cognitive strain. We don't track items in the app — that's the pub version. The phone just shows whose turn it is and whose turn is next.
02 — CAPTAIN IS THE JUDGE
Hesitation = loss. Wrong order = loss.
The Captain (game master) calls the loss. If they think you're stalling, you're out. Forgive harshly — that's where the laughs come from.
03 — BACKPACKER CITIES
100 destinations to choose from.
Bangkok, Berlin, Buenos Aires, Marrakech, Kathmandu, Reykjavik, Tokyo, Lisbon, and 92 more. Each city sets the absurd theme of the items.
