About this game
Muse casts most of the table as secret muses whispering inspiration to one hapless artist, except whispering here means picking a single word or gesture and hoping it lands. Every round, one player tries to guess a hidden concept while the muses each offer their best cryptic nudge under tight communication limits, then the room votes on who actually helped. It rewards lateral thinking over vocabulary, and watching four wildly different clues somehow triangulate the same answer is the best part of any round.
