Crowd Guess
Everyone answers the same question on their phone; you score by how many friends think like you.
How to play
- A question appears for everyone to answer at the same time.
- Everyone answers on their phone; there is no right or wrong answer.
- Every friend who answered like you is worth 10 points; if everyone matches, 10 more.
- Eight questions; the highest total wins.
The goal is not to know the truth but to know your friends: guess what the group will say.
An example round
Question: “What is a must at Sunday breakfast?” Three of five players say “tea”, two say “eggs”. Each “tea” player scores 20, for the two friends who think alike; the “eggs” players score 10 each.
Who it suits
Families and mixed-age groups. It needs no knowledge, so children and adults play on equal terms; all it takes is knowing the group.
Tips
- Think of the most common answer, not the most correct one.
- Consider the group’s ages and interests; answers differ between family and friends.
- If everyone gives the same answer, everyone scores 10 more; sometimes the plainest answer wins.
