The MIM card game
Questions about the men in the movie or show you just watched. Both people read the questions and both people answer them.
Four things, then we play
- 1It's still movie night or TV time. No big agenda.
- 2Read the card out loud, as written.
- 3Either of us can pass on any card.
- 4Either of us can end the game, no reason needed.
If a question turns into a fight rather than a conversation, we agree to stop. Taking time to let tensions settle will make the next conversation easier.
Ready to go one level deeper?
The cards so far have been about the story. The next ones are about the men in it: how they act, what they're allowed to feel, who they turn to.
Either of us can come back to the story whenever we want.
The next cards are about us, not the film.
To continue playing at this level, these two things should be true:
- 1Both of us are answering. Not one asking and one being asked.
- 2We're curious, not defending. A surprising answer gets a follow-up question, not a correction.
If either feels shaky, go back to the film. There's more to explore there.
That's the deck.
