TRY 10 SECONDS OF IT

Grandmother. Bored. Robot.

You already have the ingredients. Make a company before the rest of the table guesses your three cards.

Your turn. These 3 cards are yours. Invent a company that uses all 3, then pitch it in 2 sentences without saying any of the words printed on them.

2 minutes on the clock. The table guesses which 3 cards you had.

A table mid-pitch during a round of Idea Factory
IT GETS LOUD

The rules are silly on purpose.

Must use a robot. Must make a sound. Must fit inside a pencil box. The stranger the rule, the harder the table laughs when somebody makes it work.

Dozens of Idea Factory cards laid out for a Factory Mode run
WHEN YOU NEED MORE THAN 1 IDEA

Make 20. Keep the 1 everybody remembers.

Factory Mode drops the points. Flip 3 cards, set 2 minutes and write 3 ideas each. Bad ideas are welcome. They usually hide the useful one.

INSIDE THE BOX

3 components of an idea. 1,00,000+ combinations.

Every idea is a WHO, a WHAT and a HOW. Who has the problem, what the problem is, and the rule that makes solving it strange. Shuffle those 3 and the combinations run past 1,00,000.

HOW A ROUND WORKS

Set up takes about 30 seconds. The table does the rest.
