Game Play
Question
Draw a black question card and read it out loud, or come up with your own question. The player who most recently called their mother goes first.

Use the white number cards to vote for the player who is the answer to the question. Everyone must vote, including the person who asked the question.
Reveal
The player who asked the question collects the votes anonymously and reveals them to the group.
Guess
For each vote received, players can guess one person who voted for them. If they guess correctly the truth is revealed. Left of questioning player guesses first.
Score
When a player receives at least half of the votes, they keep the black card.
Repeat
The next player asks a question.
End of the Game
The first player to 6 black cards wins.
Ties are decided by the dealer.
Alternate Ways To Win
Majority
When a player receives at least half of the votes, each player that voted for them claims their vote and receives a point. First to 10 wins.
Just For Fun
A version where the only point is to have a good time.
House Rules
Drink
When guessing who voted for you, correct guesses mean that they drink and incorrect guesses mean you drink.
Originals
Keep the black deck off to the side and only allow original questions.
Shots
When someone receives 100% of the vote (not counting their vote) they must take a shot.
Selfie
Give players a voting card with their own number on it. You can vote for yourself. 9 players max.
Straight Up
Votes aren't anonymous. Count to 3 after everyone has decided who they will vote for and reveal them all at once.
Draw Three
Draw three black cards when it's your turn and pick your favorite. Return the remaining two to the bottom of the deck.
Tips
Circle
Sit in a circle and pass out the colored cards in order. 1,2,3,4 etc.
