" Surprisingly, absolutely no decision making is involved in playing a game of Candyland. Thus, once the cards are shuffled, the game is over. “Playing” merely reveals what is already determined, however much it feels like playing a game. The game was actually played, in a sense, when the cards were shuffled, it just doesn't look or feel like it. "
