About the Game

Great minds think ... alike? outside the box? Can you think as a group or by yourself? Can you confound the group into choosing something different?

This is a light-hearted fun little party game. Players are trying to guess what the majority of the group will think and choose that answer, or choose something that others will not choose. Whomever has the most points over several rounds is the winner.

On a round the active player: - selects one of their cards and reveals it to the group (the cards have several options listed e.g. cat, mouse, cheese) - forms a phrase/sentence/question about that card - reveals the "goal" card (which indicates "alike" or "outside of the box")

Players then try to select the best answer according to the "Group Goal" card. If "alike" is revealed, they are trying to be in the group with the majority of guesses, if "outside of the box" is revealed, they are trying to not be in the group with the majority of guesses.

The inspiration of this game was to make a silly little fun filler, that was portable that would provide lots of laughter, while allowing players to come up with creative statements of their own.
