Rules:

  1. Roll a die to determine first ‘dasher.’
  2. Dasher chooses category (Words, People, etc.) to use.
  3. Dasher reads item on card.
  4. Dasher writes down correct answer on paper.
  5. Other players write an answer on paper and pass to dasher.
  6. Using ‘proper dasher etiquette’ dasher reads all answers. (Read cards to self before reading aloud to make sure you can read them keeping authors anonymous.)
  7. In clockwise order, players guess which answer is correct.

 

Scoring (Balderdash game board can be used or numerical score can be kept):

 

  • If player wrote correct answer, player’s answer is set aside and player gets 3 points.
  • If player guesses correct answer, player gets 2 points.
  • If player’s answer is chosen by another player, player gets 1 point.
  • If no players choose correct answer, dasher gets 3 points.

 

You may use the sample Word and People definitions provided here or make up your own cards.
