Melodies

Players cooperate as members of a band, working together to complete songs by playing cards from their hands. Each round, every player either plays one or more cards or passes; the most common value played becomes the Melody for that note and must fit the song’s required progression. Songs finish only when every note has been played correctly and all players have emptied their hands. Communication is limited to strategy discussion without revealing cards or intended actions. New venues introduce house rules, instruments, audience effects and other challenges that change how the group coordinates.
