The smarter the contestants, the more hilarious this gets! The best B.S. artist usually wins.

This game gets me every time since I always fall for the wrong answer. It's hard trying to figure out what is real and what is made up. It didn't take long to learn how to play and see the rules for the Junior game make me want to look into this for my kids. Would be a fun educational game.
