About the game

What you do in a play session

Ever had that moment where someone asks a super specific trivia question and nobody has a clue about the exact answer? In Confident?, you don't need to be a walking encyclopedia to shine; you just need to know how much you don't know! The game presents curious challenges, like estimating the weight of a newborn giraffe or how many slices are in a loaf of bread, and the twist is that you don't guess a single number. Instead, you set a range—a minimum and a maximum value—where you believe the correct answer lies.

The gameplay is brilliant in its simplicity. If the correct answer falls within your range, you score. But here comes the strategic element: the tighter your range compared to everyone else's, the more points you rake in. It's a constant exercise in self-awareness and reading the room. Will you risk a tight range to score big, or will you play it safe with a wide margin to guarantee a point? This tension between boldness and caution makes every round a fun conversation, full of laughter and debates about who is the most 'confident' at the table.

As a natural party game, it scales beautifully, allowing almost any number of people to join in. There's no downtime waiting for your turn since everyone answers simultaneously. It's the perfect type of game for family gatherings or hanging out with friends where the goal is to socialize, learn bizarre facts you'll never use in real life, and, of course, tease those who were a bit too confident and ended up missing the mark. With rules you can explain in two minutes, Confident? is that wild card on your shelf that pleases everyone, from your non-gamer uncle to the hardcore gamer looking to relax between heavy titles. Get ready to find out that, in the end, your 'guessing-meter' might not be as calibrated as you thought!
