Great puzzle.
It reminds me of "odd but not peculiar"
Similar rules to PATR:
1. You can share the name of the game, "odd but not peculiar"
2. You cannot tell how to solve the game, but can give examples.
3. All examples are in the form of "word 1" but not "word 2"
For example:
Moon but not star
Teeth but not tongue
When someone gives you an example, you tell them either "yes, that is odd but not peculiar" or "no, that is not a correct example of 'odd but not peculiar'"
For instance, when someone says,
Spoon but not fork
my response is yes.
When someone says
Plate but not bowl
my response is no.
I figured the PATR out in about five minutes using the website, http://crux.baker.edu/cdavis09/roses.html
If you haven't picked up on "odd but not peculiar", email me examples and I will respond.
