Welcome to FourPlay! This is a pilot episode of a new game that we have in production here at the Trivial Warfare studios. It's a game of connections where one thing always leads to another. Players will be given four sets of four words two minutes apart and will have 10 total minutes to spot the connections in each set and in between the correct answers of each set.

We're joined by Gary Middleton for the pilot episode. Gary will be writing many of our future FourPlay games so I'm very happy to give him a chance to sit in the hot seat first.

Enjoy!
