PLAYED FOR YOU

 

The Big Bang Theory

Das Partyspiel

 

Ingenuity is relative, at least in this game, and so it is also in the TV series on which the game is based. All you need to do is to shuffle the blue Theory cards and the Bazinga cards, shuffle the red Experiment cards, too, and you can begin to play.

In each round one player is the judge and rates a topic that others play cards for. You hold seven blue Theory cards - the judge does, too! Then he turns up the top experiment card and, if it is an Advanced Test on a green background, he tells this to all players. If not, all players but the judge choose one of their theory cards and hand them face-down to the judge. For an Advanced Test you choose two cards, place them in a sleeve and hand this to the judge. If you want to use a Banzinga card you do this before the judge turns up theory cards; he must turn over experiment cards until a new one with the same difficulty as the rejected one. Then he shuffles all theory cards or sleeves that he received, turns them up one by one and reads them out. Then the judge rates all theory cards or combinations, what he likes best, gets a chip from the most valuable stack, what comes second gets a chip from the second-most valuable stack, and so on. The card(s) in last place do not score. Finally, all replenish their hand to sevetn cards and the judge changes.

After 12 rounds you win with most points.  

"Ingredient of a good Party? - Murderous raccoon or corduroy suit?" If you are amused by such answers, you are probably already rolling on the floor due to the TV series, enjoy the game and will probably answer "Voodoo" or "Teleportation" when asked for "A good job training?"
