Passing Notes

How to play Lucky Envelope

Draw a sealed slip per category. The slip is tonight. Shared option bank. Categories this game uses: place, mood, when. Do not fork a list.

Don't plan the date. Play for it. You don't have to agree on a plan. Just agree to play.

Start

  1. Pick a mode: Zero Thought (schema defaults, skip edit), Make It Ours (defaults loaded, replace any slot), or Blank Slate (empty lists — does not silently refill defaults).
  2. Each category is authored with five options: place, mood, when. You need exactly five live options in every category this game uses or you do not start.

The ritual

  1. Three envelopes. Five folded slips in each.
  2. You draw Place. Partner draws Mood. You draw When. Eyes off the slips.
  3. Two slips at once go back. Draw again.
  4. Slip n is option n.

Digital is a draw-envelope-slip on each envelope. Print is a real folded slip. Same slip numbers, same winners. Say 1-5 if you skip the draw. That is the real a11y path. Deterministic. No random.
