50/50: The General Knowledge Game – Quiz and Strategy Duels
Do you have a sense of sacrifice... or of bluff?
In 50/50, general knowledge alone isn't enough to win. This board game reinvents the classic quiz by injecting a dose of tension and strategy. For each question, you have two options. But beware: before answering, you'll have to bet on your certainty (or that of your opponents). It's a game where you can shine with your knowledge, but also win by simply being smarter than the others.
The goal of the game? Accumulate as many points as possible by answering questions correctly while managing your betting tokens to outpace your rivals.
A double-edged game mechanic
The gameplay of 50/50 is based on a constant balance between knowledge and audacity:
-
The Binary Choice: All questions in the game offer only two possible answers. Is it "A" or "B"? "True" or "False"? "More" or "Less"?
-
Stakes and Wagers: Unlike classic quizzes, you can choose to double your points if you're sure, or "follow" an opponent's opinion if you're completely lost.
-
Eclectic Themes: History, pop culture, science, unusual facts... the questions are varied and accessible to all, avoiding the sometimes overly academic side of traditional general knowledge games.
-
Speed and Interactivity: No downtime! Rounds are short, and interaction between players is constant thanks to the betting system.
