Each turn in Dixit, one player is the storyteller who chooses one of the six cards in his or her hand, then expresses an idea, with sounds or words, that is reflected on that card's image, and places the card face down on the playing surface. Each other player then selects the card in his or her hand that best matches that expression, and passes the selected card to the storyteller, face down as well. The storyteller shuffles all the cards together, then turns them over to reveal them. Each player other than the storyteller then secretly guesses which card belongs to the storyteller. Players score points for guessing the storyteller's card, and for each player who guessed their card. The storyteller scores points if some players -- but not all -- guessed their card correctly! The first player to 30 points wins the game.

Dixit: Disney Edition features 84 cards, with each card representing one of 84 films in the Disney or Pixar catalog from Steamboat Willie to Turning Red.
