Setup
Shuffle the deck and take turns dealing. The dealer draws a question card and assigns two fellow players to interview each other. To start the round, hand either player the question card and instruct them which question to ask.
After the first player answers or passes, the interviewees switch positions and ask the remaining question.
Answering the Question, or Taking a Drink
Drink and you forfeit your chance at winning the round, but you'll get to guard your secret forever. No booze? Just answer. The truth is also hard to swallow.
If both questions have been answered, the dealer judges which interviewee gave the most satisfying answer, and awards that person the question card as a point. (If you're playing with alcohol, the loser takes a drink.)
Play continues clockwise. The next dealer draws a new question card and picks any two people to answer. We trust you to be a good sport; try not to ask one person twice before everyone else has been asked once.
This Round's On Me Cards
Everyone except the dealer must answer these questions. The dealer then judges whose story is best and awards them the point. If you're playing with alcohol, all losing players must then take a drink.
Winning the Game
- 3–4 players: The first to collect 5 question cards wins.
- 5–7 players: The first to collect 4 question cards wins.
- 8+ players: The first to collect 3 question cards wins.
"With a Twist" Deck
The "With a Twist" deck squeezes a brisk squirt of additional flavor into the game. Deal 3 Twist Cards to each player at the start of the game. Players can use these cards to either redirect an incoming question to a different person, or change something about the question.
Multiple Twist Cards can be played in a single round. After each round, draw more Twist Cards until you have three in your hand.
Twist Card Timing
- Icon of one person: can be played whenever you are asked a question.
- Icon of a group of people: can be played at any time, even during someone else's turn.
