It comes with 250 short questions taken from Expansion Pack 1, which are lighter and more fun than the originals, making it perfect for non‑hardcore gamers. The gameplay is simple: someone reads the question, everyone writes down an estimate on a sheet, then the answers are laid out on the table, sorted from smallest to largest. Each player places betting chips on the answer they think is closest to the correct one. If you hit the exact answer or have the closest estimate, you win poker chips. On the final question, you can bet extra chips, and whoever ends up with the most chips wins. The standout feature is its simplicity: you don’t need real poker chips—just dry‑erase markers and a clean surface. The game lasts about 25 minutes, supports 4 to 18 players, and is great for parties, family gatherings, or trivia nights. It blends knowledge, betting strategy, and a dash of bluffing, all in a compact, easy‑to‑set‑up package. If you love trivia and want something that doesn’t require hours of rule explanations, Wits & Wagers Party is the right pick. ## FAQ ### How long does a game of Wits & Wagers Party take?
