About the game
What you do in a play session
You'll have to collaborate to arrange these books with bizarre symbols in a way that everyone can memorize before time runs out. Each round, five new reference cards appear, and the team needs to race to find the corresponding books and place them in the right spot, along with the others. The challenge doesn't stop there: at the end of each round, a quiz tests the collective knowledge about the organization. It's not about knowing the exact position of each book, but rather the relationship between them. If the team fails the questions too many times, the game ends for everyone. It's a race against the clock and against your own memory to avoid ending up "out of sorts" with the alien order!
