Quick
Summary
Poor
Mary. She has her hands full with Julep, her six-year-old who is
full of mischief. Mary really needs help to keep herself from blowing
her top or doing the wrong thing with her daughter. In this cooperative
game, two to four players (twelve years and up) play cards
from their
hands
to
help Mary manage the anger she feels.
The
game consists of 21 turns, at three time periods for seven days.
Each turn an Event card
is played to reveal the stressful challenge Mary faces that provokes
her anger. The player can then play a Response card
to reduce the impact of the event. Chance cards are
also revealed to introduce unexpected events for Mary, both negative
and positive.
If
the players can keep Mary's stress and her relationship with
Julep
from
reaching
a blowup point, then they win. If not, everyone loses. This is
a challenging game that will play different every time because
of the
random events that plague Mary both at home and at work.
The
game board and three decks of cards are all in full color on quality
stock. Cards will have to be cut from larger sheets. We encourage
you to examine the two-page rules that also contain an example
of play for a more complete description of the game.
