PLAYED FOR YOU
Guinness World Records
How big is the biggest sauna?
Hurra, hurra, Pi mal Daumen is back! No, of course not, and, yes it is! The game mechanism of Pi mal Daumen, which gave us lots of fun and pleasure a few years ago, is coming back in the guise of Guinness World Records. Nobody needs to know things, all can give more or less intelligent assessments on facts noted in the Guinness Book of Records.
One player is quiz master, his left neighbor is the candidate; he chooses one of the three cards on display. As the quiz master you read text and question, the candidate gives a guess. When this guess is outside the scale the quiz master answers with “0 points” and also with “too high” or “too low”. When the value is within the scale you tell the candidate the points he scored and the candidate advances his marker accordingly. When the result was 0 or not the highest possible score of 6, the next player may guess and move when his guess is better, until the highest score is achieved or until all have given one or two guesses. After 20 cards you win if you are furthest advanced on the scale.
The entertainment value is - as in the predecessor - in the questions; then it was questions like „how many kilometers of coast line are there on earth? “, in the new game it is “how many body modifications did Gabriela Peralta and her husband Hugo Peralta have in total?“ or „How long was the longest limousine?” Sometimes additional information like “had 26 wheels” in case of the limousine. Do you know how many seconds Zdenek Bradac took to sort a shuffled set of playing cards? 90 seconds? 0 points and too high!
Unlimited fun and triggers for discussions, laughter, surprise or controversy - winning nearly takes second place!
