Roxane

“And what is a kiss, specifically? A pledge properly sealed, a promise seasoned to taste, a vow stamped with the immediacy of a lip, a rosy circle drawn around the verb 'to love.' A kiss is a message too intimate for the ear, infinity captured in the bee's brief visit to a flower, secular communication with an aftertaste of heaven, the pulse rising from the heart to utter its name on a lover's lip: 'Forever.” ― Edmond Rostand, Cyrano de Bergerac

In Roxane, 2 to 4 players engage in a friendly competition vowing for the love of the beautiful Roxane. Players will have to compose the most beautiful poem using subjects, verbs, adverbs, complements and similes. Players will not only have to create rhymes, but the most exquisite sentences, scoring them extra points as the game progresses. Who will emerge as the best poet of them all?
