About the game

What you do in a play session

Ever had that moment where you know the answer to everything, but your brain betrays you right when you speak? Well, Think Again! (known as C'est pas faux! in France) is the perfect game to laugh at your own intelligence. The premise is brilliant and absurdly simple: everyone knows the right answer, but the twist is that sometimes, the right answer is... being wrong! The game uses a clever system of question cards that flips logic on its head. Once a player finishes reading a question, they reveal the back of the next card, which dictates whether players must answer correctly or incorrectly. If the 'genius' icon appears, you must provide the actual correct answer. If the 'dunce' icon shows up, you need to be the fastest to give a wrong answer. For instance, if the question is 'What color are the Smurfs?' and the card requires a wrong answer, the first person to shout 'ed' wins the point, while the person who says 'blue' loses a point for being too smart! It's a chaotic burst of laughter, especially when the questions get ridiculous, like asking about the colors of the letters in the alphabet. The gameplay is fast-paced and works great solo or in teams, with rule variants to ramp up the competition. Just a heads-up: be ready with your vocabulary, as the game requires a good grasp of the language to avoid confusion, but the fun is definitely worth it!
