Specs on the box

3 – 6 players

8+ years

What’s in the box?

The box content is actually pretty sparse, and I think the box itself could have been a bit smaller which would have made it more portable. You get 2 packs of double sided questions cards, 6 player pawns, 2 sets of Pass & switch cards and a player board. Oh you also get a cool timer. It’s a 5 second hourglass but it’s more of a toy than an hourglass and it is a source of fascination for younger kids. This is both a blessing and a curse. It just depends on how seriously you take your games, and you should not take this on very seriously.

How does it play?

Setup

Each player picks a pawn and places it on start. Then you give the player to the left of the first player the box of questions and the timer and you’re good to go.

Turn Sequence

With each round lasting a tad over 5 seconds… there really isn’t much to do. The player to your left draws a card and asks you question and then flips the timer. You have 5 seconds to answer or to play one of your Pass or Switch cards. The Pass card passes the question to the next player, if they answer it correctly then they get to advance their pawn, if not you can move yours. The Switch card allows for a change in question. You only get 2 of each of these cards so use them wisely. The first player who’s pawn reaches the end space I the winner. Along the way you will cross 2 danger zones, these will simply make you miss a turn if you get your answers wrong. Nothing too serious.

Conclusion

Simple, fast and fun. What more do you really need to say about a game like this? I like it but I don’t think it’ll have the legs of something like 30 seconds. I guess it because the anticipation and excitement does not really build up as it does in 30 seconds. It’s just a little too quick. While I won’t break it out every weekend I will play it when the extended family gets together because it’s really easy to setup and to teach. Also those with shorter attention spans will find it more manageable. The kids like it too though and one time we added helium… NB: Helium is dangerous. I’m not advocating its use, if you do use it please use with caution.

Can I play this at a braai?

The family braai is the perfect place for a game like this. As long as you’re excused from asking questions while you’re busy with the meat it’s all good.

Has there ever been a 0-0 in NFL?

There have been 73 games in pro football history that ended in a 0-0 tie, according to Pro Football Reference. But it's been nearly 80 years since the last one, meaning there's yet to be a scoreless tie in the Super Bowl era.

nbcsports.com - Has an NFL game ever ended in a 0-0 tie? - NBC Sports Chicago

Another Thursday, another rough night of football.

Just one week after a downright ugly Indianapolis Colts 12-9 overtime win over the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football, the Washington Commanders' 12-7 victory against the Chicago Bears was an equally tough watch. The Commanders and Bears played over 29 minutes before the first points were scored, with a Washington field goal from Joey Slye right before halftime finally breaking the scoreless tie. The second half was a bit more eventful, as the two teams combined for two touchdowns, highlighted by Justin Fields' 40-yard touchdown pass to Dante Pettis, and 16 points.

Has there ever been a 0-0 tie in the NFL?
