The Poll Game

This poll-prediction game has players guess how many others will answer yes and race to the board’s center. Being the only exact predictor earns an extra leap, so reading the group matters more than your own answer.

Read the full game description

The fun begins with the posing of an intriguing poll question. Choose from the game's 750 "Yes or No" questions, like, "Have you ever saved someone's life?" or create one of your own. The object is to guess how the other players will answer the question. Move ahead a space each time you correctly predict the number of "yes" answers. Jump ahead two spaces of you are the only player to guess the number of "Yes" responses. The first player to advance to the center of the board wins, though the fun and conversation generated by the poll questions are what the game is all about. 2001 Mensa Select 2003 Major Fun Award
