[edit] Special Rules
Each player plays Things on other players until each has 3 Things. The first to get rid of all Things in play wins.
[edit] The Parser
Phrases marked as Commands in bold on each card are Actions you can take as long as that card is in play. Replace <object> with the name of any Thing in play.
When you take a Command action, check all cards to see if they have a answer to that Command. If they do, execute them.
