This game is very similar to Balderdash but doesn't use a board. Each player has six betting cards. Three cards with values from 5 - 15 labeled "True" and four cards with values labeled from 5 - 20 "Bluff". A card is selected and four definitions are read out loud. Three definitions are listed and the active player makes up the fourth. Players then place a bet based on one of the definitions. The players whom have correctly predicted the result get the points they have bet. The incorrect bets are given to the active player. The first player to score 250 pts wins. This game has lots of cards. 672 bluff cards are included and each card has two words.
