How to Play?
The game is very simple and can be played anywhere with strangers.
You and a friend are out and about (can be alone but partner recommended) and spot a striking stranger. Who are they? Its up to you to decide!
Start with name, age, biggest fear, and greatest wish
Go a little deeper with first memory, most prized possession, biggest regret, etc. Remember, these are real people just like you or me. They are complex beings so make their stories match that.
Now, connect all of these facts together. Start to build a narrative around them. Be open to anywhere it might go - dramatic, personal, emotional, silly. Improvise, get creative, have fun!
Whenever you “meet” someone you really connect with, write their story down and share it with us.
This game is inspired by my favorite word: sonder.
