Very closely related to What's That on My Head?, and Hedbanz for Adults!. The object is to guess your celebrity name first and win the game. Your celebrity name is in a card in a headband that is placed on your head. The play - first, you wear a headband that has a randomly selected celebrity name card inserted into the slot. The oldest player then spins the spinner and moves his meeple to the appropriate position on the board. If you land on the "ask a question" space, you get to ask the other players a yes/no question about the celebrity name on your head. If you get it right, you get to spin again. If not, the play moves clockwise. There is a space for asking two questions, losing a turn or receiving a "big hint". The player reads the "big hint" question on the card and the group is allowed to respond beyond yes/no. The player then ends his turn. If you guess your celebrity name wrong, you still get to keep on playing, you place a new, random celebrity name into your headband. There are also blank cards so you can write in other people's names who may only be celebrities in your world.
