Overview
Play involves selecting a build card and assigning roles. The player who can see the card has to communicate with only signs and gestures. The player in the middle tells the blind player what to do, both interpreting the instructions and helping them navigate which pieces are touching and placing.
As teams progress and start to play against the clock, they come up with different strategies for speeding up communication. The building player has to have their eyes closed but can speak and ask questions. The player with the card, can't speak or point at the pieces but can develop different gestures to communicate.
