What it feels like
Everyone here got the same question. Well... almost everyone. One of you got something slightly different, and they don't know it yet. Answer. Listen. And find who's off script.
How to play
- Take a private turn each and answer a few quick prompts. Each round, one of you secretly got a slightly different prompt.
- Each round, the real prompt comes up with everyone's answers and names.
- Whose answer doesn't quite fit? If it was you, blend in and point elsewhere.
- Vote someone off script — on phones or by pointing.
Scoring: Catch them: 1 point for everyone who voted right. Get away with it: 3 for the one who was off script.
What you need
3 to 10 people and one phone, tablet or laptop to pass around — or everyone on their own phone in a room. Nothing to download, no accounts. The best lines can be sealed into your group's Almanac and come back in later games.
