Stay Cool is easy. We ask you to do nothing complicated — but you must do it all at the same time...

When you are the active player in the first round; you must answer verbally the questions asked by your left-hand neighbor while you write answers to the questions asked by your right-hand neighbor; using seven letter dice to write three- or four-letter answers. While you're doing this; another player flips a 30-second sand timer four times; giving you two minutes to answer as many questions as possible. At the end of that time; multiply the number of answers you gave for the questions from the left and from the right to determine your score.

In the second round; you do the same thing once again with new questions; but you must tell the player watching the sand timer to flip it before it runs out of sand; with a maximum of two minutes of playing time. If you fail to tell the player to flip the timer before it runs out of sand; your turn ends immediately. However your turn ends; you score points as described above.

In the third and final round; you must do everything described in the third round except now the sand timer is hidden from your eyes!
