Write your game's rulebook in a Book and Quill and pass the silent test.
The ultimate test: a stranger walks in, reads your rulebook and plays. You're not allowed to say a word.
- New skill Writing a book and placing it on a lectern
- Level 8 · Game Makers
- Difficulty Advanced
- Mode Creative
- Time 40–60 min
- Ages 13+
What you’ll build
Invent a points system and write a clear rulebook for your game in a Book and Quill, then display it on a lectern in a spotlit Hall of Rules. A new player must learn your game from the book alone while you stay silent.
Finish line: Your signed rulebook sits on its lectern, your points system works and a new player learned the game from it alone.
Bonus challenge: Add a secret last page with a hidden challenge only true fans will find. Who reads that far?
You’ll need
- Book and Quill
- A lectern
- A tester who's never played
You choose
- My rulebook's title
- Points: per buzzer, per spare second, or
- The penalty for breaking Rule 1
Stuck?
- Don't sign the book until after your rewrite. Signing locks it and you can't edit it again.
- Keep each page short. Page one should be the goal in a single sentence.
- To read or remove a book on a lectern, tap the lectern.
