| In these games, you receive a folded piece of paper on which to start either a work of art or a story. Then you pass the paper to the next person, who can only see the inch or so of art extending onto the next fold, or the sentence or two of words extending onto the next fold. And they pick up from there and continue the chain, to humorous or awesome results.
