Initial Thoughts puts a modern twist on classic trivia. We’re tempted to call it the pop-culture party game of the future, but in truth (and even better), it’s trivia designed to always remain current - even decades from now.
Instead of straight forward questions, players are dealt broad-stroke “thought” cards, each with hundreds of potential answers (e.g. Name a fictional character from a TV sitcom). The catch is their answer can only use a limited set of initials. The more initials their answer uses, the more points scored.
Add to this, a bluffing mechanic. Plus bonus cards that offer unique advantages. It’s an exciting race to the finish as players move around the board. The first to score 40 (or more) points wins. But it’ll take a winning combination smarts and strategy to get there.
