About the Game

The Metaphor Game is the game of funny questions about the people you know, and the people you don't! Place the question cards in the middle of the table, then roll the die. The first to guess the secret identity wins!

Shuffle the deck of cards and place it face down in the middle of the play area. These are the question cards. Players place the pad of paper and a pen (not included) next to the cards. During each round one player writes down the revealer's answer after players have asked questions from the cards. The revealer starts by rolling the category die which has 6 categories written on it, including celebrities, friends, family, players, athletes, and musicians. The revealer then thinks of someone that fits the category the die lands on then writes the name down and hides it so other players can't see the answer. Players then take turns drawing cards and asking the Revealer a question. It's the ultimate game of family fun!
