Bluff Quiz
A surprising fact with one word missing: write a lie convincing enough to fool your friends, then find the truth.
How to play
- A surprising but true fact appears with one word missing.
- Everyone writes a convincing lie for the blank on their phone.
- The lies and the truth are shuffled together; everyone tries to find the truth.
- Finding the truth earns 1,000 points; each player fooled by your lie earns you 500.
Six questions; questions 3–4 count double, 5–6 triple. The lies you write are shown only to the players in your room.
An example round
The screen shows: “An octopus has ___ hearts.” Deniz writes “four”, Kerem writes “two”. The list shows “three”, “four” and “two”; the truth is three. Ayşe finds it and scores 1,000. Kerem falls for Deniz’s “four”, which earns Deniz 500.
Who it suits
Groups of two or more who like creative writing and bluffing. It is at its best among players who know each other’s sense of humour.
Tips
- The best lie looks like the truth: match the tone and length of the fact.
- Knowing how your friends write helps you spot their lies.
- A very funny lie gets a laugh but rarely fools anyone; points need believability.
