Setup

Designate one player to be the host who will read about the questions. The host then presses the ‘START GAME’ button at the top of this page.

How to Play

The host reads out a silly scenario, like: "You're in a crowded elevator and you fart. No one knows who did it, but everyone starts to look at you suspiciously." All players, including the host, have a few moments to think of the best response to this situation. Players take turns, in no particular order, explaining what they would do. Once everyone has made their case, everyone votes by pointing at the player who gave the response they thought was the best or most compelling. The host then awards one point to the player with the most votes before moving on to the next question.
