The game house had four magic mirrors—four stations for players.
When the game began, each mirror displayed a skill name. The player's task was to deduce what general type of skill it belonged to: offense, defense, recovery, time, theft, support, special, hybrid, and so on.
There were twenty questions total, with no time limit, but each question allowed only one answer, which had to be supported by a logically consistent explanation.
To win, the player needed an accuracy rate of at least seventy percent.
It looked generous on paper—just name the general category and give a reason. Fourteen correct answers and you passed. But the longer Rita studied the rules, the more she realized this game was harder than all five she had played before combined.
Most skill names were tied to a story, an emotion, or a metaphor. The higher the rank, the less literal the name. Guessing from the title alone was madness.
