The YELLOW group focused on taking a new path, represented by phrases like CHANGE TACK and SHIFT GEARS. GREEN centered around classic children's books, including CAPS FOR SALE, CORDUROY, GOODNIGHT MOON, and MADELINE. The BLUE category encompassed various movie subgenres, such as BUDDY COP, NEO-NOIR, SPACE OPERA, and SPAGHETTI WESTERN. Finally, the PURPLE section highlighted situations people often try to escape from, like BAD DREAM, ESCAPE ROOM, JURY DUTY, and LABYRINTH.",
