About the game

What you do in a play session

If you are the type who loves a mental challenge mixed with a healthy dose of bluffing, Guess Club is tailor-made for your game night. Imagine a classic harbor club where travelers from all corners of the globe gather not just to trade stories, but to see who has the quickest wit and the best ability to read the table. Forget about Google or any external help; here, your brain is the only tool allowed to shine.

The game flows dynamically over three intense rounds. First, the group decides on the categories through a classic game of rock-paper-scissors. The challenge here is to pick themes you know well, but that also allow for at least ten different answers—after all, nobody wants an impossible theme. Once the category is set, each player races against the clock to secretly write or draw their answers on cards. The real kicker isn't just knowing the right answer, but trying to predict what your friends will write, or even better, betting on how many correct answer sets the group will accumulate in total.

It is a perfect party game for those who enjoy pitting their wits against the creativity of others. You need to be clever enough not to be too obvious, but precise enough to score. In the end, whoever has the largest stash of chips takes home the title of Guess Club master. It is that quick experience that fits into any late-night session and guarantees plenty of laughs when someone tries to predict an answer only to be surprised by the chaotic (or brilliant) minds of their friends. Get your paper ready, sharpen your pencil, and try not to give the game away with that sneaky bluffing smile!
