Build a bridge out of words
You get a subject and a style. Build four pillars of description so an image AI could draw it. One catch: you can't say the style word. Describe it instead. Every slip cracks a pillar, and three cracks bring it down.
Class setup for teacher code Not saved yet
Set this once for your class. Every round uses it. Then copy the class link and share it, so every student device opens with the same setup.
Class resultsSee how your class is doing: scores, the pillar to teach next, and every round, by player slot only.
The first device that opens results owns this code. To open them on another device, paste your teacher key there.

Game Night tone (host)
Grown-up: describe a hotdog to an alien as humanity's greatest achievement, without saying hotdog, sausage or bun. The obvious words are blacked out automatically. Never anything sexual, at any setting.

The photo becomes the target your crew tries to match.
A short sentence, 4 words or more. The game scores the prompt against it.

Everyone can see the style. Nobody can say it.

Only works here at setup. Leave blank to play on your own.
Teacher codes are 4 digits, like 0427. Hosts use their host code.
Every Blackout Word works the same: a slip cracks the pillar.
Ask the Expert
Good questions count toward understanding the subject, half of the final score.
Turn timer
Each player gets this much time on their turn. When it runs out, their pillars lock as they are.
Rounds are saved without names to help improve BAM. Don't type real names or personal details in your prompts.
How to play
- Get your challenge. You get a subject to describe and an art style. Everyone can see the style.
- Watch for Blackout Words. You can't say the style's name or any word in the Blackout list. Describe it instead. Example: if the style is Watercolor, don't write "watercolor"; write "soft paint that bleeds into wet paper." Each time a Blackout Word appears, that's one slip, and the word is removed for you. Each slip cracks your pillar, and three slips make it crumble (Penny is watching). Slips also cost a few points, up to 10 in a round.
- Ask the Expert (if it's on). Ask open questions about details, like "What colors are in the light?" Good questions score points.
- Build the four pillars.
- Outcome-Anchoring: "I'll know this worked if…"
- Expert-Casting: "Act as…"
- Sequential Scaffolding: "First… then… last…"
- Lens-Consistent Correction: "Check that…"
- Cross the canyon. Your score is half prompt format (did each pillar do its job?) and half understanding the subject (the scene, the details and the style).
- See your picture, then fix it. Copy your prompt into Gemini (free) and see what your words built. If something doesn't match your plan, tap Revise and recheck, fix the pillar that caused it, and cross again to compare.
