Amazing Sphinx involves five people positioned with increasing height in a line, facing straight; the person at the line's front sits, and the following people are positioned such that they become consecutively higher. The Amazing Sphinx is confronted with a question, which is usually preceded with something along the lines of "O, great and mighty/powerful Sphinx."

The Sphinx then answers from first person to the last person, each head uttering one word each. (However, the special case is the use of hyphens, in which you can say something like "Your-hyphen-mom".) If necessary, the first person continues after the last, and so on...

The Sphinx's parts have no idea what the other parts will say. The idea is to say something that the next person can continue off of. Vague words, especially heinous pronouns and heinous prepositions are good. For example, the third person should not finish the entire answer. The answer should be unreasonable.
