You will write their personal journal over a period of weeks or months. You will write about the ups and downs of their daily life: the events that will spice up their trip; the picturesque landscapes they will cross; and, their encounters with diverse people. You will have the opportunity to watch them evolve over time, but also to follow some of their customers who will return changed from their first visit to the kiosk.

• A standard 52-card deck (poker or bridge);
• Writing materials: paper, pencil and eraser, or a tablet;
• A copy of the Correspondence Table to match the cards and prompts, found in the book;
• A hot beverage of your choice (optional);
• A 2 or 3-hour block, or some time every day.

The game manual contains 23 pages in color.

You can also download a free tea tasting tool to accompany your game experience. This includes a terminology of tea and an aroma wheel. See below under Demo.
