The Game, 1997
This is a game of chance, choose your position. This is a game of challenge, question every chance. This is a game of solitude, player is self. This is a game of strategy, opponent is self. This is a game of perception, eyes of the media
This is a mind game.

Throw the dice to reveal the roles you have been given and play the characters accordingly. You may find yourself playing a variety of roles. There are two dice. Each dice has three positive roles and three negative roles.

From slavery to abolition you will be SUBMISSIVE
From abolition to emanicipation you will experience RAGE
From emancipation to revolution you will be DEFIANT
From revolution to devolution you will be PROUD
From devolution to the 90s you will be INDOLENT
SENSATION may take you from the 90s back to slavery

There are 36 cards in the deck, 6 cards in 6 categories. You must have at least one card from each category on display at all times. The youngest player who finds the right combination is the winner. . .until a better combination is played. If you play your hand strategically you may posses the secret of beauty. For guidance in any category, refer to the Book of Hints that has been provided courtesy of the media. Here are the cards, you have a lifetime to play.

The purpose of the challenger is to question any conclusions that are determined by chance. You are free to challenge any conclusions. Each successful challenge moves you closer to self-actualization. But if you lose the challenge, you must move back to your last acceptable position. Self is challenger, self is judge. Perceive aggressively.
