The core mechanic stays the same: a estimation question is read, each player writes down an answer on paper, and all answers are then ordered from lowest to highest. The goal is to bet on the answer closest to the correct one without going over. The twist comes from each character's unique power. Every player controls a hero or villain with a special ability that triggers when they bet on their own answer – the so‑called “headquarters”. These powers can alter bet values, move tokens, or affect teammates' scoring, creating synergistic combos that demand quick discussion and a lot of creativity. Rounds last 2–3 minutes, keeping the whole game brisk (about 25 minutes total). Each team places two meeples: the main character and a junior version, the latter granting an extra point at round’s end. Question cards cover a wide range of topics, from science to pop culture, ensuring both comic‑book fans and trivia buffs have fun. Components include team boards, betting chips, question cards, and themed meeples. The game supports 4–6 players, but future expansions promise more heroes and villains, allowing up to 8 participants. Super Wits & Wagers blends the tension of betting, the humor of super‑powers, and the camaraderie of a party game, perfect for groups that love to laugh, strategize, and guess the smartest answer. ## FAQ ### How many players can join? 4 to 6 players in the base game; expansions aim for up to 8. ### What’s the typical play time?
