Playing the Game

Couples sit facing each other a few feet apart. The men on one side, and the women on the other. The questions are asked to the women first; starting with "Round 1 Women."

The first question is read and each wife writes down her answer. Question is re-read and the first husband announces his answer. If it is the same as his wife has written, he wins points.

The husband of the second couple announces his answer. Couple 3 and 4 follow in order. Circle score on scorecard for correct answer, then erase board and go to question 2. The second question is read, and the game continues as above. After the 5th question, the game continues with the husbands, and each writes his answers to questions No.1-5 "Round 1 Men." Wives then announce their answers in order. The correct match for questions No.1, 2 and 3 are worth 20 points. Correct matches for questions No.4 and 5 are worth 50 points. Following "Round 1 Women" and "Round 1 Men," the men are asked to write the answer to bonus question 1, on answer card. Wives must match answers to win 100 points. Following "Round 2 Women" and "Round 2 Men," the women are asked to write the answer to bonus question 2, on answer card. Husbands must match answers to win 100 points, and so on.
