It was a 3D boardgame, as best I can describe it. Ashok and Prima were teaching me the rules.
It wasn't more complicated than other games I'd played, but it had some strange features. Sometimes another player's move forced you to redo your previous move.
"Who goes first?" I asked, figuring it would be clearer once we were playing.
"Whoever wins the next game goes first in this one."
They both smiled. It took me a moment. Ah, time travellers! It all made more sense now.
"But how do you know we'll play another game after this? Why not make the winner of this game go first?"
"Then we'd know who won before we started! Where's the fun in that?"
