What the group revealed
6 players (Maren, Theo, Ines, Dara, Kwame, Lucia) · 4 maps · finished, and open to read. Each map ranks what the group gathered along spectrums the group coined. Tap an item for what was said about it; switch to the web for the territory they mapped first.
Round 2 · Experiences · 2 spectrums
The founding story
Rosa’s bakery sits truest of the six and wears the widest halo: most of the table ranked it low on flattering, and Lucia, who added it, ranked it the most flattering of all. The noble coat of arms sits furthest toward invented.
Invented — Literally true → · Embarrassing — Flattering ↑
A wider halo means raters split hard on where this sits. Tap a dot for its item.
Round 2 · Experiences · 1 spectrum
Secrets everyone knows
Uncle Pete’s “Florida” is the one place all four agreed — the most openly joked-about secret. Who was adopted split them hardest.

Round 3 · Intentions · 1 spectrum
Great-aunt Rosa ran the bakery alone
carried forward from Experiences
Lucia carried Rosa forward to ask why the family would tell her story at all. Giving a daughter a model looks furthest forward, and Dara carried it into the last round.

Give my daughter a model
carried forward from Intentions
The game ended on what to do. Baking Rosa’s rye is the gesture that binds; asking Grandpa and ordering the census records sit lowest on binding — the two that would test the story.
Small gesture — Big undertaking → · Divides us — Binds us ↑
