How to Play
- Shuffle and place all cards with their backs face down to form a deck that can be reached by all players. The side with the four pictures is the front.
- All players carefully take one card without touching or seeing the back of their card.
- One player begins counting down: 3, 2, 1, go! On go, all players may begin touching the back.
- Once a player thinks they know the answer, they place their card down and say "got it." When only one player remains touching their card, they must stop.
- In the order of which player said "got it" first, players reveal their guesses and see if they are correct.
- The fastest correct answer: 2 points.
- Other correct answers: 1 point.
- Incorrect answers: 0 points.
- Use cards (from the discard pile or deck) to track points: each card counts as 1. The first player to get 7 points or more is the winner!
Game Variations
Speedrun It
Players can decide to only use a specific finger, your non-dominant hand, etc. to touch the back of the card. Then, randomly take 25 cards to form a deck that can be reached by all players. Before counting down, all players draw one card. On go, everyone starts guessing and then drawing one new card as fast as possible.
Keep correct answers to one side and place incorrect ones on the other when there are no cards to draw. The game ends when there are no cards to draw. The player that has the most correct answers wins the game!
Scan it
Draw 5 cards and place them all face down where they can be easily reached. The player on their turn chooses one card and only uses 1 finger to quickly slide down the back of the card from top to bottom, mimicking a scanner. The player then decides to guess or pass. If the player correctly guesses, they take the card as points; but if incorrect, the player is eliminated. The player who is the last one standing or has the most points after 5 cards wins the game!
Tag-Team it
Separate players into teams of two. The player whose turn it is to touch the back closes their eyes and draws one card (without peeking at the front!). Their teammate can only see the front. The player touching the back then must describe what they are feeling as their teammate attempts to figure out the answer. The first team to get 5 points wins the game!
