Players: 3 to 6
Playing Time: Approximately 90 minutes per game
Loaded Questions is a fun game that even the kids will enjoy.
Players try to guess answers to general questions from other players. The object, according to the rules, is to get to the end of the path on the board.
To begin, players roll a die to determine which category question they begin with. The roller picks a card and reads the appropriate question. Then all the other players write down an answer and give it to one player, who then reads all the answers — and the roller must guess who gave each one. For every correct answer, the roller advances one square. If the roller gets all of the questions right, he/she gets another question of the same color (with only one chance to go again per turn). Otherwise, the roller advances only for the number of answers he/she correctly matched.
The categories and an example of the questions in each are:
Hypotheticals: If you could attend any sporting event which one would it
be?
Anything Goes: Explain why some people don’t get along with you.
No Brainers: What do you consider your most prized object?
Personals: What religion do you feel is the most far-fetched?
There are plenty of other general questions that — if you think too hard — become hard to answer. For that reason, when we play, we have a six-second rule, meaning you must write down the first thing that comes to mind, as long as it answers the question.
The box says that the game is designed for three to six players, ages teen to adult, but younger children will be able to answer most of the questions. It takes approximately one and a half hours to complete the game. However, as much fun as the game is, it’s just as much fun to ask your friends the questions. It’s also a good way to get to know people. This game can be as serious or silly as you want it to be.
There is a filler pack with more questions called “Re Loaded Questions”
available also.
