![]() ![]() ![]() What I particularly liked about this game was that it was a new take on a traditional trivia-style game. It did not take anything away from the gameplay at all. However, prior knowledge of other trivia games, such as Trivial Pursuit, can be beneficial to playing this game.Īlthough the rules state the player with the most chips at the end of seven rounds of questions is the winner, we just played until we ran out of time. For example: How many countries won at least one medal at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing? or What is the record for most goals scored by a single player in an NHL hockey game? There is no history or backstory needed for the player to understand the gameplay. The goal of Wits and Wagers is to answer trivia questions (always a numerical answer) and bet on which answer given by all the players is the closest to the correct answer without going over. The group consisted of a mix of librarians and support staff who periodically meet to play various board games in the library collection in this session, we had five players. Recommended play time is 25 minutes but my group played over our lunch hour (about 45 minutes). Wits and Wagers is a game for 3-7 players and combines traditional trivia with something not typically seen in trivia games: betting. This week I played Wits and Wagers with my library board-gaming group over a lunch hour at Carleton University’s MacOdrum Library. ![]()
