🎯 OBJECTIVE

Roll it. Twist it. Create it.

Players draw a Gooblurs character, roll for a letter-based modifier, and transform it into something new.
The fun comes from unexpected combinations + creativity under pressure.

🏗️ Setup

1. Place Gooblurs cards in a face-down pile

2. Decide how you’ll use the alphabet list:

   • Option 1 (Freestyle): Make up themes on the spot

   • Option 2 (Preset): Use a pre-agreed list (see “Example Alphabet List” below)

3. Give each player drawing space

4. Choose a starting player

🔁 How to Play (Basic Round)

1. Draw a Card

• Take 1 random Gooblur character card

2. Roll the Die

• Roll to determine a letter

3. Get Your Prompt

• Match your letter to the alphabet list
  👉 Example:
  Rolled B → “Baby Gooblur”

4. Create Your Remix

• Redraw your Gooblur with the new theme applied

5. Reveal

• Show your creation to the group

🏆 Optional Ways to Play

🎯 Judge Mode

• One player judges each round

• Picks favorite based on:

  • Creativity

🔥 Fusion Mode (Best Variant)

How it Works:

1. Draw a Gooblur card

2. Secretly choose TWO letters

3. Combine both into one creation

👉 Example:

• P: Pirate + Z: Zombie = Zombie Pirate Gooblur

🏆 Scoring (Fusion Mode)

Other players guess the letters chosen based off the drawing.

• Guess both letters = 2 points

• Guess one letter = 1 point
