Object

The game tests each player's insights into the other players' real-life views. Points are won by correctly predicting your opponents' answers to questions of behavior and preference, and by foreseeing which of your opponents will predict your answers. Each player starts the game with 600 points. The first player to reach 1,200 points wins.

Setup

Each player should have their own notepad and pen. Before each round, list the players on your notepad, starting with yourself. Leave a small margin to the left of the names, and a larger margin to the right.

Gameplay

1. Pluck a card from the deck. Read the question and the multiple-choice answers.
2. Select your answer. On your notepad, write the corresponding number to the left of your name.
3. Try to predict the answers of all the other players. Write your predictions to the left of each player's name.
4. Then, wager 0, 25, 50 or 100 points on each of your predictions. This wager represents how well you think you have predicted your opponent's answer. Write your wagers to the right of each player's name.
5. Finally, make a second wager of 0, 25, 50 or 100 points on how well you think your opponents have predicted your answer. Write your second wagers to the right of your first wagers.

Restrictions on Wagers

You cannot wager a greater point total than you have.

You can only place one 100-point wager in each column.

If your point total is zero, you are restricted to a total wager of 50 points, which must be bet on one opponent.

Scoring

After all wagers have been placed, each player reveals their multiple-choice answer.

If you correctly predicted a player's answer, say so, and annotate your first wager on that player with a plus (+) sign. If your prediction was incorrect, annotate a minus (-) sign.

If other players predicted your answer, annotate your second wagers on those players with plus signs, and the remaining wagers with minus signs.

Tally your wagers to determine your score.

Add (or subtract) your score to your total points. If your new total would fall below zero, your total is zero.
