What is mash game?

MASH or Mansion, Apartment, Shack, House is a popular pen-and-paper game that was traditionally played by teenagers to predict their future. The game involves players making choices about various aspects of their future, such as where they will live, who they will marry, what job they will have, and how many children they will have.

To play the game, players create a list of categories (such as mansion, apartment, shack, house, spouse's name, job, number of children, etc.) and fill in options for each category. They then use a random method to eliminate options, such as counting or drawing lines, until they are left with one option per category. This final selection is considered to be the player's future.

While MASH is often played for fun and entertainment, it can also be used as a tool for self-reflection or decision-making. It is a simple and engaging game that has been enjoyed by generations of players.
