Who goes first in Telestrations?
The Op English second edition
Everyone starts together: each player selects a secret prompt, then the group sketches at the same time. With an odd number of players, pass the books left before the first sketch; with an even number, sketch in your own book.
Rule details
Keep passing books to the left between sketching and guessing steps.
