But do the categories (Animal, Vegetable, Mineral) just make no sense against the possibile answers?
The instructions for the game are at the top. A player picks a word from a card and the other player has to guess the word they’ve picked, starting by asking if it’s an animal, vegetable or mineral.
You’re not wrong, some of those are a stretch.
Imagine finding out moments before your first parachute jump that your parachute is actually made from cabbage.
Clearly not nylon.
Wouldn’t silk be Animal though? Are worm by-products vegetables? Were plant fiber parachutes a thing?
“Early parachutes were made of silk. The most common fabric today is nylon.”
