Time: 20 Min

Imagidés, first released in the early 2000s as Talking Dice, is primarily a storytelling device, with players rolling the six-sided dice, then using the images on them to create a story one die at a time. While initially developed in order to assist students with language learning, particularly a secondary language, Imagidés can also be used for games.

Full instructions include several other ways to use the cubes to solve problems, break up writer's block, enhance your imagination and heighten your ability to find unifying themes among the diverse images. Interpret or get at the meanings of your answers more quickly. It's fun, easy, and mind-stretching.

As a puzzle the cubes will really give your imagination a work-out. You'll practically feel both sides of your brain dancing. The challenge: Fit the 9 cubes into a 3x3 square. Now examine the cubes in any one row and turn them so their tops have something in common. Do this for all 3 rows. Explain your choices, or challenge another player to identify the element they share. More than one answer may be right, and there are thousands of possible combinations.
