Object of the Game

Be the first person to collect 10 Play Cards by answering (truthfully!) to the Never Have I Ever questions.

Setting Up

Remove all the Rule Cards from the box, shuffle them, and place them on the table. Deal 10 Play Cards to each player and leave the remaining cards in the box.

Starting the Game

Pick the person with the coolest shoes and whoever is to the right of them starts the game. Why? Because Never have I ever liked a show off.

Playing the Game

The person starting the game picks a Rule Card from the pile, reads the directions aloud, and places it face up, on the table. The Rule Card explains who and what the players must do for that round, so hopefully everyone is listening. If you can't play a Rule Card, take another one until you can.

And Now... the Fun Part!

Everyone playing in the round must answer (I repeat -- truthfully). If you are guilty of a Play Card, you win it and have to keep it face up, on the table in front of you - your "Wall of Shame." If you are not guilty of the Play Card, you add it to the discard pile. Remember, first person to get 10 Play Cards wins. Congratulations. You make horrible life decisions.

Starting a New Round

At the end of each round, all players draw new Play Cards to bring each player's hand back up to 10 cards. The player on the left begins the next round by picking up a new Rule Card.

One Rule

No judgment.
