Overview
A fast, social party game where players take turns as the Big Cheese. The Big Cheese secretly chooses an answer to a question, while everyone else tries to think like them and guess what they picked. If you match the Big Cheese’s answer, you earn a point. It is part personality test, part mind reader, and all about great conversations, surprising answers, and laughs.
