Thanks for your question. The two objects in each Are you more like question are metaphorical. So, are you more like a cat (nimble, quiet, fussy, etc) or more like a dog (loyal, energetic, fun, etc?) so think more about the characteristics of the objects rather than what they actually are. And I would suggest that as partners complete their conversation, they swap cards and seek out a new partner to start a new conversation. Have FUNN.

Thanks for sharing and 3questions: How do they mingle with each other and describe the card word since they can directly show the card to each other without much talking? Are you more like a cat or a dog?this question sentence may make sense,but what if I ask:are you more like up or down?or are you more like ladder or ...this is weird and do not know its meaning. once matched and the question answered,then do what?Let the two people wait long until others all done?is it not too short?
