Quick Take: It's basically like a spin-off of family feud, but where you need to predict the most popular answers within your group. It's cute, easy, quick to play, and very funny which is the mark of a good social game. This one tends to stay pretty clean because you aren't rewarded for joke answers, your answer needs to match someone else's. If I had to pick a social game to play as a teambuilding activity with coworkers or a social game to play with extended family during a holiday, this would be it!
How to Play: Your goal is to be the first to reach 35 points. You get points by writing down answers to prompts that match someone within a range you select. For greater ranges, you get fewer points. They have a novel way to determine which of the prompts on a card you select - when you flip over the prompt card the back of the next card in the deck tells you which letter of the face up prompt card to select and which direction your card needs to match with another player. You can either play to 35 points or a higher or lower point total of your choosing.
Variations: If you have a tie where two players reach 35 points on the same round, extend play one more round.
