Yes, and…

Yes, and…

To test and improve an idea, avoid closing doors.

Don’t say, “Yes, but…”.
Say, “Yes, and…”.

“Yes, and…” is a simple rule with a powerful effect.
It shifts conversations from judgment to exploration.
From blocking ideas to building on them.

    The Cartoonbase Yes, and… Card Game is a practical creativity tool designed to test, stretch, and improve ideas together. It helps teams move past quick judgment and keep ideas alive long enough to become better.

    Simply draw a card and apply the question to the idea on the table. What happens if you push it further? Put it in a different context? Add a constraint? Build on someone else’s thought instead of shutting it down?

    Designed by illustrators, strategists, and professional idea-block survivors, the game adapts to workshops, meetings, and creative sessions of all kinds. It encourages collaboration, exploration, and forward momentum when discussions start looping.

    The Cartoonbase Yes, and… Card Game will:

    • Push ideas beyond first instincts
    • Turn “yes, but” into constructive dialogue
    • Help teams build stronger ideas, together
