Description

Outrageous headlines, some published, some not, are the basis of this game that refuses to take itself seriously. With over 300 cards, and many hundreds of headlines, players will have to be on their toes to separate fact from fiction. Each card presents four headline possibilities. Are "Woman Raises Baby Rhino In Apartment," "Beaver Steals Camper's Wooden Leg," "Man Videos Cat Making Snow Angels," and "Men Get PMS Too," real headlines? (The last one was actually published.) Players determine whether the stories accompanying the headlines are true or unverified. They wager points at each stage of the game, and the player with the most points at the end wins. Plenty of laughter will accompany this game, and the headlines will prove that truth is, more often than not, stranger than fiction. This game is for two to eight players or teams. --Wendy Slotboom
