The present invention relates to a system and a method for interactive entertainment involving a game. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for playing a game involving interactive generation of a visual image and a lingual definition of a precursor constructed phrase and image portion by a plurality of participant-users, and a method and system for sharing the same via a world wide interactive computer system. The computer system enables different participant-users, or teams of participant-users, to post generated visual and lingual definitions for the same precursor constructed phrase and image portions enabling comparison entertainment of the same and supporting selection of a preferred construction for awarding a prize.

 respective said precursor line drawing indicia markings and said precursor letter-phrases being printed on respective ones of said plurality of game pieces without repetition in said plurality, whereby said plurality of users can operate the game by placing a user-defined definition in said designated writing play area without repetition through said plurality; and 
   container means for containing said plurality of similarly sized game pieces.   
     
     
         21 . Method for operating a gaming apparatus for an interactive entertainment by a plurality of users, compromising the steps of:
 providing a plurality of similarly sized game pieces removably secured together for sequential use;
 each said game piece including a designated drawing play area, a designated writing play area, and a designated participant-user definition writing play area;
