How a round works
- Tap A or BLock in your side, then guess how many will pick A.
- Watch the splitTwo bars fill up. Everyone finds out who they live with.
- Minority takes the hitNail the split for bonus points. Lone wolves pay extra.
Rounds take about 40 seconds, so a full game fits in 8 to 15 minutes. Two bars fill up on the TV and everyone finds out who they live with. It is the easiest game to explain, which makes it a good opener.
Scoring
The minority loses 200. A lone wolf, the only person on their side, loses 300. An even split costs everyone 100. Calling the split right earns bonus points.
