We have a creative writing section for this forum, and of course the Malkovich games...

For fun, what about combining them? Go is sometimes discussed metaphorically - it's like a battle or like a debate, for example.

Well, two players could select a metaphore/theme for their game. On every move, the player describes what they are presently doing (not hidden) metaphorically. In the end, we have a metaphorical description of the game...

Just an idea I'm playing around with... :-)

This sounds like fun. I'd be willing to give it a go.
