The GAME
Round 1
set your boundaries
The GAME is about turning shared frustration into laughter and connection. You already know these situations are coming — now you have a scoring system.
Meet (ideally in person) to lay ground rules and discuss the behaviors and situations to look for.
Do you accept the printed items on your bingo card? What needs an edit? Is anything missing?
During the event — how does the game stay fun without getting the players caught?
Are you playing in real time? Or tallying points for an overall winner?
When is the afterparty? What is the bet?
Round 2 is the event itself — endure, observe, mark your squares. Round 3 is the debrief: share stories, tally points, and declare yourselves all winners for surviving with grace and humor.
⭐ Variant: Star in the Middle
Instead of a FREE center square, every player brings their best example of the most outrageous behavior observed. Share in Round 3 — the group votes on the winner.
We recommend keeping your group to six players max. Rounds 1 and 3 should always be played with at least one good friend.
Square Brainstorming
Optional
Use these prompts to build or customize your squares before the event. Answer together — the best squares come from people who were already in the room.
What are the most awkward behaviors you expect to experience?
What do they do that is so bad it might just be funny?
What are the most difficult behaviors you expect to experience?
What are your "Not again!" moments?
What are the most infuriating/enraging behaviors you expect to experience at this event?
What are your "f**k you" moments?
Choose your mode of play. This sets the structure — rules auto-fill on the next slide so your group can focus on fun, not logistics.
Your agreed ground rules — come back to these if there's a dispute!
