Hey quiz slingers!
If you love ya quizzes and like yer lists, then welcome to my game - it's like an old-style Western shootout but with brains for guns.
First, someone's gonna ask y'all a question with a ton of correct answers. Find an answer and live to play another day. Get it wrong, and you're out. But find a golden answer and you're into the shootout.
Are you a facial hair aficionado? Do you think you know famous beards? Well then, this is your chance to impress! Players are given clues, one at a time, from the player wearing the beard card. The quicker you guess the famous beard, the more points you'll score. Can you Name That Beard?
This game is based on the TV show of the same name. The setting is a desert island. First as teams, then as individuals, players engage in a number of activities, including answering riddles, guessing items from a series of clues, guessing teammates' answers to Scruples-style questions, and Pictionary-like drawing competitions. Winners obtain tokens representing survival items such as food and matches, which are useful for other challenges.
During successive turns in the end game, players vote together on who should be expelled from the island. When only two people are left, all the other players vote together on who should be the sole Survivor.
Linkee is a trivia party game. It can be played by individual players or teams.
Questions on a card are read out but answers are kept secret. Once all questions and a further clue have been given players must work out what links those answers and shout Linkee! Get it right and win the card. Each question card has a letter on the back. Once you have the correct letters to spell Linkee you win the game.
Described as a shouty outy family game, the game is intended to be boisterous family fun.
Game description from the publisher:
How long is the Golden Gate Bridge?
Where has “evidence" of the Yeti been found?
How many sculptures are on Easter Island?
It‘s likely that you don‘t know any of these facts. But you might have a rough idea, and that‘s good enough because Terra is the party game where being close counts. And if you have absolutely no idea what the answer is? Take advantage of your friends who do know!
Terra is a redesign of Friedemann’s 2009 SDJ-nominated FAUNA, which had similar mechanics, but was specific to animals. Terra changes the subject matter to general geographic information, includes a brand new Imperial measurements map side (retaining the Metric map side for gamers outside the U.S.), has 300 topics (with three categories of questions) on oversized cards, and simplifies the scoring. Terra plays in 45 minutes for 2-6 players.
