In Therapy, players move through six life phases answering trivia questions. Landing on therapy spaces requires answering personal therapy questions, while others guess the answers, revealing surprising insights. The goal is to collect pieces for each life phase by answering or guessing correctly, combining knowledge with social interaction.
