For Sale is a kind of parlour game. Players make conjectures about people, situations and events. Who, where, when and why?

(...) The game must involve movement. You can move vertically or horizontally. There will be right, you think. There will be wrong, you think. Ms. Stysia! Ms. Stysia! She’s not around... She’s never around when the audience want coffee...
