Frame cards let you quickly create a game to play, when nobody in the group has any strong ideas. They are like character cards for the game itself.

Each player draws a random Frame card, or picks a specific one. They then make decisions based on those cards about what to play, and the group discusses what to make of all this. The cards are the start of a conversation, not the end of it - players can draw new cards, change their mind, etc.

An Activity is whatever the players will typically be doing during the game, at least at first.

Individual characters could be well suited for the activity, but it's also interesting if they aren't, but must do it anyway.
