The Year BehindYour pace

One Voice: the birthday person answers or passes. Round: everyone is invited once. Open: guests contribute; the birthday person can listen or join. Follow the card’s setup before its task. One guest is enough. No answer taps or phone passing.

Three cards. No sign-in.

How to play

Read each card’s role. On One Voice choices, only the birthday person chooses; on Round choices, everyone decides and reveals together on three.

Leaving or reloading starts a new conversation. Spoken answers are not recorded.
