Smart Ass Board Game
- Brand: Unbranded
Description
It’s visually pleasing, with lots of tokens and chips to play with, and the base game contains over 500 questions, meaning it should last a long time before you have to repeat any cards. Before the answer is revealed, you bet on which guess is closest to correct. Feeling confident? Bet on yourself. Think someone else knows better? Bet on them. Points are awarded based on these bets.
Sometimes, two players answer the questions at the same time. Then honesty by players is needed in determining who gets the correct answer out first and the decision is adjudicated by the person who asked the question. Shot in the Dark A quiz game where no-one will know the answer - give it your best guess Shot in the Dark lives up to its name with some questions that require highly specific knowledge. Similar to Shot in the Dark, Wits & Wagers levels the playing field by asking niche questions with specific answers such as “In inches, how tall is the Oscar statuette?” or “In years and days, for how long did Franklin D. Roosevelt serve as US president?” Colourbrain simplifies the trivia format by making every question about colours. Each player holds 11 cards of various hues, and has to place down the correct cards to questions such as “What’s the colour of the lid on a jar of Marmite?” The questions are a mix of general knowledge and pop culture, so kids and adults can play together - there’s even a Disney-themed version of the game.If no player can be separated as the winner, then a tie-breaker question (from the "hard ass" category) is needed to be asked.
Components: gameboard, 6 playing pieces and stands, 461 question cards, category die, movement die, instructions More recent versions of the game come in travel-size tins, which are great for taking out and about, but only contain 55 cards, so after a few games you may remember the dates. That limits replayability, but you can mix and match different sets (each of which have different themes, such as inventions or British history) to increase complexity, and older versions of the games have more cards. Hard Ass – there are a separate pile of Hard Ass questions as this is effectively a bonus question space. Only the player who has landed on this space gets to answer the Hard Ass question. If they get it right then they can roll the Jumbo Movement Die again for a bonus move. If they answer incorrectly then play just moves on as if it had never happened!Should there only be two players, the player that doesn’t land on the Dumb Ass Space gets to roll the number die and move the corresponding number of spaces. The game then continues normally with both players playing the next round. Hard Ass Space
There are a number of rules throughout the game such as landing on the Dumb Ass space which means that the player that lands on that cannot answer or ask the next questions. The wider range of challenges means Cranium should appeal to a more diverse playgroup than just the trivia experts. The original game skews a little older due to the difficulty of the challenges, but there are family-friendly versions of the game for young ones. When you land on this space you will be asked a bonus question. The current reader selects a Hard Ass card and reads a question from it. The game recommends you read the top question on each card first, and then move onto the bottom questions.
