Brilliant or BS

Brilliant or BS is a bluffing trivia game for four to six players. One player reads a trivia question, and the others answer it secretly. Each player then tries to convince the reader that they know the correct answer without saying it out loud. The reader has to judge who is genuinely brilliant and who is bluffing. It rewards confident delivery as much as knowledge, and it suits friends and family who enjoy debate and harmless deception. The rental includes the full deck of cards and the rules.
