Commentary

May 11 is built around readable everyday scenes with one more abstract final layer. Laundry Day starts directly: washing machine, detergent, laundry basket, and clothesline are all part of washing and drying clothes. Birthday Party is still familiar, but it asks players to move from objects to a small celebration through cupcake, balloon, wrapped gift, and party hat. Lens Work is trickier because its images come from different situations. Magnifying glass, camera, glasses, and binoculars all help someone look more closely or capture what they see. Light Sources closes the board with scale as the misdirection. Flashlight, lantern, lighthouse, and candle are different objects, but each exists to push light into darkness.
