Gameplay
[edit]Gameplay consists of players writing their own lines of dialogue for clips from public domain[5] B movies, PSAs and industrial films.[6][7] After the line is played back using text-to-speech, the players then choose which line is the best. Between two and six players can play in a game, and up to twelve audience members can watch and vote on the best lines per game.[8][9]
