Introduction
Welcome to the hilarious and surprising world of Analyze Me!
Look into the minds and hearts of your friends. Make educated guesses about how they would react in certain situations and about their likes and dislikes.
What would they do if they found a hair in their Caesar salad? If you are an astute judge of character, you have a chance to be crowned "Best Shrink Apprentice!"
Object of the Game
Be the first player to win one Question Card from each category.
Playing the Game
Place the game box in the middle of the table. Arrange the question cards in 4 stacks, corresponding to each category, and place each stack in one of the individual slots of the box.
Each player receives 3 Answer Cards (A, B, C).
The player who has the nicest smile kicks off the game as the "Shrink Apprentice" for the first round.
The Shrink Apprentice chooses a Question Card from 1 of the following 4 categories:
- Play Life
- Social Life
- Work Life
- Private Life
The Shrink Apprentice reads the question and the 3 possible answers out loud. The other players, the "Patients," decide which of the 3 choices best corresponds to their personalities.
NOTE: Not every question will apply to your actual life circumstances. When answering such a question, consider it hypothetical: What would you do if you were in that situation? If more than one answer applies, choose the response that is the closest in spirit to how you feel.
Once they have made up their minds, each Patient puts his/her Answer Card facedown on the table (either A, B or C).
Any patient shuffles the cards and passes them to the Shrink Apprentice.
The Shrink Apprentice guesses who answered what. He/she places one Answer Card in front of each Patient. Once all the Answer Cards are distributed, the Patients, one by one, reveal their actual answers.
Winning a Card
In order to win a Question Card, the Shrink Apprentice must answer some or all correctly, depending on the number of players.
- 3 to 5 players: The Shrink Apprentice must guess all answers correctly to win the Question Card.
- 6 players: The Shrink Apprentice must guess at least 3 answers correctly to win the Question Card.
- 7 to 8 players: The Shrink Apprentice must guess at least 4 answers correctly to win the Question Card.
Play moves clockwise to the next player, who then becomes the next Shrink Apprentice and chooses a new Question Card from any category.
If you have misjudged this time, don't worry, you will have more chances to get ahead!
Winning the Game
If you are the first player to win one Question Card from each category, you are crowned "Best Shrink Apprentice" by the Shrink Academy.
