Dixit

Description

"Dixit" is an imaginative storytelling card game where players describe surreal images, match cards to clues, and score via guesses and votes for creative synergy. Key mechanics include: - *Storyteller selection* One player per turn chooses a card from their hand of six and invents a descriptive sentence without revealing it. - *Card submission* Other players secretly select and submit their best-matching card to the storyteller. - *Reveal and shuffle* Storyteller mixes submissions with their card and reveals the lineup face-up. - *Guessing phase* Non-storytellers vote secretly on the storyteller's card. - *Dynamic scoring* Storyteller scores 3 if some but not all guess correctly (0 otherwise); guessers score 3 for success, others 2 for failure; submitters earn 1 point per vote on their card. - *Endgame triggers* Play until deck depletes or a player reaches 30 points; highest score wins. - *Modular decks* Base game and expansions provide 84 mixable cards each. Dixit is a social deduction and creativity-driven card game for multiple players, featuring hands of six surreal, illustrated cards. Core turns rotate the storyteller role: they craft an evocative sentence inspired by one hidden card, prompting others to submit matching cards anonymously. The storyteller shuffles and unveils the array, after which players guess the original. Scoring incentivizes nuance—storyteller earns 3 points if partially successful (some correct guesses, excluding none or all), with accurate guessers also at 3; failures grant others 2; every submitted card nets its owner 1 point per vote received. This fosters ambiguity: too obvious yields communal points against the storyteller, too obscure denies them success, while popular submissions reward broadly. Game concludes upon deck exhaustion or any player hitting 30 points, crowning the top scorer. Expansions integrate seamlessly with the base's 84 cards, enhancing variety through combinatorial artwork.
