How the game works

  1. Each round shows a question with two answers, for example Sweet or salty?
  2. You pick the one you like more. Your pick stays secret.
  3. Then you guess which one your partner picked.
  4. Both picks are revealed together. Each correct guess is a point for the guesser.
SweetYou: guessedSaltyPartner: pickedorYou guessed right: +1
You guessed Salty and your partner picked Salty. One point for you.

Eight rounds take about five minutes. Every round also tells you whether you picked the same thing, which is its own kind of score.

There is no failing in this game: Hops always points out one thing worth talking about.
