Dont Do This - Game

---

Whatever kind of creative you are, this game will get you out of your comfort zone. This mind experiment game based on the ‘ToDon’tList Method’ stimulates creativity through limitation.

How to play
You take 3 “Do” cards that define a unique imaginary project. You need to come up with a solution for this project. But you also get 3 “Don’t” cards, which give you a set of rules.

For Example
Don’t: Don’t use any other forms than squares | Don’t make the height less than 3 times the width | Don’t use less than 2 colours
Do : Create clothing that is also a landmark | For two persons | To become more productive
Don’t: Don’t use straight shapes | Don’t make the size static | Don’t use non-recyclable material

The “Do” and “Don’t” cards make you think differently than you normally would. In the beginning, the rules might feel like a big obstacle. But once you start playing, you will see that limitations also give you possibilities. Rules make you think about loopholes. Play the game by yourself to get inspired, use it as a conversation starter or play it in teams to find out who comes up with the most surprising solution. The outcome could even be the beginning of a real project!

‘Don’t/Do This’ picks up where the book ‘Don’t Read This Book ? Time Management for Creative People’ leaves off. Like the book, the game is based on the ‘ToDon’tList Method’: the more you subtract, the more focus and time you gain.
