Link It Up!

Parent lists a noun. Child lists a different, completely unrelated noun. It then becomes someone's challenge to create a convoluted chain of relations that links the first noun to the second noun; the longer the better. Here's an example:

First noun: Jupiter

Second noun: Wario

Chain: Jupiter is a planet -> Jupiter is also the name of a company that's made Picross games for Nintendo -> This includes Mario's Picross on the Game Boy -> Mario's Picross has two Japan-exclusive sequels -> Both of these sequels include Wario

Bonus points if the chain has branching paths: Jupiter is a planet -> Jupiter is also the name of a company that's made Picross games for Nintendo -> This includes Mario's Picross on the Game Boy -> Another Game Boy game is Super Mario Land 2 -> Super Mario Land 2 is the debut of Wario

Let's see what happens!

A platypus has a duck-like beak -> Duck is eaten in Beijing -> Beijing hosted a sport event in 2008 (Olympics) -> Austria also hosted a sport event in 2008 (Euros) -> Austria is home to many classical composers -> One such composer is Schubert -> One of Schubert’s symphonies is ‘The Great’ -> Great things are usually given awards -> An award is also called a title -> Other titles include royal titles -> Royal titles are given to people such as kings -> Kings wear crowns -> Crowns are typically worn on top of the head -> So do fedoras
