📖 About This Game

Shindig Machine is a series of collaborative storytelling games for 3-8 players. You work with (or against) the other players using a custom deck of striking black and white 108 cards to tell the future, slander fictitious politicians, diagnose rare diseases, and meddle with movies like a studio executive. Shindig Machine includes more than a dozen game types, with play times to fit any attention span. Get your friends together and have fun!
