Inappropriate Robots

One afternoon my friend Julie turned to me and randomly said, "You should make a game called 'Inappropriate Robots.'"  I rushed to find a notebook.

Inappropriate Robots

Inappropriate Robots is a word game designed to be played by a group of people as they stroll along or drive together.  During their turn, a player will use four elements to describe a vile or uncouth piece of technology:

1.  An adjective.
2.  A noun to serve as a subject.
3.  A verb.
4.  A noun to serve as a direct object.

The subject and direct object can be compound nouns or proper nouns, so "The saucy VHS rewinder tickles Philo Farnsworth" would be perfectly acceptable.  The player scores one point for each element they can actually see while describing the robot. 

After a few moments have passed and the group has continued its journey the next player takes a turn.  Players cannot repeat elements used in earlier turns unless they see another one during their turn.

Each player gets three turns.  The player with the most points at the end of the game is the winner.
