A similar game.

When I go to MNHQ I will be taking some feathers.

What are you taking?

Working out the rule is how you play. Thats the game.

None of you can take what you have suggested, although he last two people on the list could both take the same thing.

@NewYearss has given a helpful clue to @RaraRachael .

It takes a while to "get it", but once you have, you'll kick yourself.

It's a great game for playing round a table with a large group of friends/family, but it works particularly well on MN, as the answer is staring you in the face.

Jugendstiel · 10/01/2026 09:43

Aha. I think I might have worked it out from the clues.

I will take jelly.

WinterFrogs · 10/01/2026 09:51

I think i might take apples?

ThreeSixtyTwo · 10/01/2026 10:00

I believe I can take tea to MNHQ.

I'm not sure if sandwiches would be ok.

You can take tea, I think. Sandwiches you’d probably have to get an appropriate type such as turkey.

IrishMammy12345 · 10/01/2026 10:05

Imgoingtobefree · 10/01/2026 10:10

TheRozzers · 10/01/2026 10:12

LaMarschallin · 10/01/2026 10:17

Marzipan?
My book?
Margaritas?

Eta D'oh!
Obviously not.
Lemonade, I suppose.
But I'd prefer Margaritas.

Scrabbler · 10/01/2026 10:18

I will take strawberries 🍓 (I think?)

WinterFrogs · 10/01/2026 10:21

We used to play this sort of game ( a simpler one) at Christmas when i was a child. Being the youngest by quite a long way, I used to get furious that everyone else get it right but not me. They kept it going till I figured it out.

IsThisTheWaytoSlamMyPillow · 10/01/2026 10:21

I will take a camera

PhantomOfAllKnowledge · 10/01/2026 10:24

I'm taking Nurofen.

Lurleene · 10/01/2026 10:26
