Object of the Game
The object of the game is to be the first player to fill your Conga scoring case with scoring tiles. You win tiles by completing activities with other players before time runs out.
Getting Ready
Setup
1 Set out the card deck, scoring tiles, Cranium Clay, and Conga timer.
2 Give each player a Conga scoring case
Now you're ready to get started! The person whose birthday is coming up next goes first.
Game Play
On your turn:
-
Draw a card from the d see which of the four C activities you will do. Read the whole card out loud to the other players. See the rules on the back page for each type of activity.
-
Think of an answer 3 that you can get the other players to guess. Write it down on the secret pad. Don't let anyone see your answer!
-
Close the cover on the secret pad to start the Conga timer. Pass the Conga timer to the player on your left. This person is the first guesser.
-
Start the activity. Follow the rules on the back page to help the other players guess your answer.
-
The first guesser makes one guess and hits the green guess button. After each guess you'll say whether the guesser was right or wrong.
If that guess is wrong, the guesser quickly passes the Conga timer to the next player.
Players keep guessing, hitting the guess button, and passing until someone guesses correctly or time runs out.
The timer is random. It might stop after just ten seconds, but it could go for as long as a minute. So guess quickly before the timer goes off!
Scoring
If Somebody Guesses Correctly...
-
Stop the Conga timer by opening the secret pad.
-
Collect your scoring tiles. You and the person who guessed correctly each win the number of tiles shown by the scoring lights on the Conga timer.
Now your turn is over.
The player to your left goes next.
If Time Runs Out...
-
If it's your turn, you don't score, and the player holding the timer when time ran out doesn't score, either.
-
All of the other players win one scoring tile for staying out of trouble!
Now your turn is over.
The player to your left goes next.
Hint: More Guesses = More Tiles
As the number of guesses goes up, the number of tiles you can win goes up, too.
So when it's your turn, try to think of an answer that other players will be able to guess before time runs out, but not on their first try.
End of the Game
If you fill your Conga scoring case with tiles, you win!
Shout out "Conga!" and open your case so everyone can see. If two or more players fill their cases on the same turn, all of those players win!
