About the game

What you do in a play session

If you're already a fan of Herd Mentality, you know the goal is always to think like the majority so you don't end up stuck with the cow. With this Christmas-themed expansion, festive chaos is guaranteed! The pack includes 100 new questions focused exclusively on traditions, food, and awkward situations that only happen during this time of year. It's the perfect spice to liven up family gatherings or that Secret Santa exchange that always ends in healthy discord.

Beyond the fresh questions, the real star of this box is "Moodolph," the red-nosed cow. It joins the game as a special element that brings a holiday vibe to the table, maintaining the classic dynamic where you don't want to be the only one giving an answer different from the rest of the group. If everyone thinks turkey is the main dish, but you voted for fruitcake, get ready to face the consequences! The mechanic remains the same: simple, fast, and laughter-filled voting, where consensus is the only key to survival.

This expansion doesn't change the rules; it just injects a massive dose of holiday spirit into your base game. It's the perfect add-on for anyone wanting to pull the game off the shelf in December and ensure no one gets bored while waiting for dinner to be ready. The card quality matches the original, and the questions are designed to spark funny debates about what is or isn't acceptable during Christmas. If you enjoy party games that don't require deep strategy but force everyone to interact and laugh at each other's answers, this pack is a must-have. Grab some hot cocoa, gather the crew, and try not to be the odd one out, because in the world of Herd Mentality, being common is the best strategy to win!
