About the game

What you do in a play session

Picture a game where the only way to win is by asking smart questions and eliminating clues like a coffee detective. In "Guess Who Coasters," each player keeps a character on a drink coaster, and the mission is to discover who the other’s hiding before they discover yours. The board is simple: two coasters on each side, each with a different character. The twist? You can only ask yes-or-no questions, so strategy hinges on picking a question that cuts the possibilities in half. If you get it wrong, the other player gains the advantage of knowing what's on your coaster. The game is quick, about 10 to 15 minutes, and works well in any setting, from the dining room to the bar table. It’s perfect for kids learning logic and adults craving a light reasoning duel. The only caveat is that it’s only for two, which actually ramps up the rivalry between the two competitors. In short, a classic remix with a modern twist that will make you feel like a true coaster detective.
