The basics
The aim is to complete a fill-in-the-blank sentence with the answer the round's leader finds funniest. The leader reads a question card, everyone lays face down the answer card from their hand that seems best, and the leader tries them out aloud before naming a favourite. Its author scores 1 point and leads the next round; the first to 5 points wins (10 or 20 for a longer game).

Setup
11 answer cards, Random first leader
- One deck of fill-in-the-blank question cards, one deck of answer cards, and blank cards for writing your own answers.
- Each player is dealt eleven answer cards. The first leader, the "Question Master", is chosen at random.
How to play
Leader reads 1 question, 1 answer face down, The leader picks
- The round's leader draws a question card and reads it aloud.
- Everyone picks the answer from their hand that seems best and lays it face down.
- The leader shuffles the answers, tries each one out on the question aloud, then names their favourite.
- Before each new question, everyone draws back up to eleven cards in hand.
Scoring
Chosen answer: 1 point, Its author leads next
- The chosen answer earns 1 point for its author, who keeps the question card to show it.
- The author of the winning answer becomes the leader for the next round.
End of the game
First to 5 points, Or 10, or 20 points
- The first player to 5 points wins. For a longer game, the publisher suggests 10 or 20 points.

Frequently asked questions
What is the idea?
Complete fill-in-the-blank sentences with answer cards, usually absurd or saucy. A humour game that the publisher reserves for over-16s, not for every audience.
How does a round work?
One player reads a sentence card with a blank; everyone secretly offers one of their answer cards. The reader picks the one that makes them laugh most: its author scores a point and reads the next question.
Is there a right answer?
No, none: it is all subjective. You play for the comic effect, and the taste of the round's reader is law.
How many cards in hand?
Eleven. Before each new question, everyone draws back up to eleven answer cards. The luck of the draw is what makes the combinations work.
How do you win?
First to 5 points wins; the publisher suggests 10 or 20 points for a longer game. The score matters less than the fits of laughter.
