Overview
Perpetual Notion is a clever and creative word association game where players take turns adding one-word descriptors to build a unique (and often hilarious) mental image of a mysterious object, creature, or concept. With each added word—like bouncy, round, easy to use, or folds—the description grows more specific. But here’s the twist: no one reveals what they’re thinking of until they’re challenged!
If someone calls your bluff, you must declare your imagined item (say, a trampoline). If the group agrees it fits the chain of words, you earn points. If they don’t buy it, your notion falls flat. Fast-paced and surprisingly funny, it’s a great game for those who love stretching their imagination and debating the edges of logic.
Similar in spirit to: FitzIt, It Fits, Such a Thing?, and JaLink!
