The Game of Farmer Trott is a version of the popular word game Peter Coddles. In Farmer Trott, one person reads the story supplied with the game, and the others draw cards marked with roles, such as "Dame Trott." When the story refers to Dame Trott, that person must answer with the other words printed on other drawn cards. The story becomes nonsensical quickly, and thus made for fun at parties and gatherings.
