Make each session with Rory’s Story Cube entirely new and yours by including as many or as little dice as you wish. Use the icons literally or figuratively - the choice is yours!
Play it as an improv game where each player contributes to part of the story, picking up where the last one left off. Sharpen your wits by adding in a competitive element and award points for inventiveness, drama, speedy delivery and humor! Rory's Cubes stretches the narrative capabilities of all who play with it. Kids have to decide what the pictures are going to mean and then link them coherently. Turn it around and watch what adults come up with too! It is a wonderful opportunity to model different storytelling techniques. The more you use them, the more ideas you will have for their use!
