Read the full game description

Whozit?, first released as Profiler, is a game of co-operative deduction! For example, who would care more about their looks after a parachute jump? Dracula or Lady Gaga? Discuss and decide! Every round, one member of the team chooses a target character (e.g., Dracula) from six drawn at random. They then draw two phrases from the phrase deck and rank them from -5 to 5. The rest of the team then judges who among the six characters doesn't match up with how the two phrases have been ranked. If the team guesses correctly, the score marker is advanced one spot and the round continues. If they guess wrongly, all cards are discarded and the next round starts. The game ends after five rounds. Can you achieve a perfect score?
