The Intimation Game

The Intimation Game is a two-player card game where one person plays the Machine, who is trying to express themselves faithfully according to their Program, and the other person plays the Human, who is trying to understand how the Machine thinks about a certain topic. Players use cards and a chess board to direct the conversation, but the two roles have different restrictions on how they can communicate. See what bizarre things the Machine will say, and the more bizarre things the Human will understand them as!
