Even though there are multiple boards, this game can only be played with two people. If you are playing multiple games in a row, consider using different boards each time to add variation. If the game is new, you will need to insert the miniature character cards into the slots on the game board. The placement of the cards doesn’t matter and doesn’t need to be the same on both boards.
If you aren’t a confident shuffler, place the cards on the floor and use your hands to muddle them up instead. This will achieve a similar result.
Make sure that the other person doesn’t see your character! If your opponent accidentally sees your card, shuffle all the cards and draw a new one.
If you are playing multiple games, alternate who gets to start each game to make it even.
You can’t ask open-ended questions, such as “What colour hair does your character have?” or “What colour are their eyes?” Your opponent can only respond to your question with a yes or no answer. ”Do they have glasses?” “Are they smiling?” and “Are they wearing are hat?” are more good questions to ask your opponent.
Make sure to only flip down characters that relate to the question that you ask. Otherwise, you risk making an incorrect guess at the end of the game.
A character guess ends the game. If you are correct, you win! If you win, move the peg on the front of your board along one point to keep score of who has won the most games. You can only guess one character at a time. For example, you can’t say “Is it Steve or Mike?"
Once the game is over, put your character cards back into the pile of cards and shuffle them again.
