About the game
From the box: 'How many countries in the European Union can you name? The problem here is that only one person in the group knows the topic, so how arrogant will you be in your prediction, and will someone challenge you?' Players take it in turns to secretly draw a category card from the stack. They then bid how many things in that category - whether it's 'vegetables' or 'film stars' - they can name. Bidding continues around the table, with the other players unaware of what they are actually bidding to name, until one player decides not to bid, and challenges the preceding player. The category is then revealed to all players, and the challenged person must name at least as many things as they bid. If they succeed they keep the card; otherwise the challenging player claims the card, gaining a point.
Questions and answers
The catalogue lists Arrogance for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Arrogance has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
Arrogance belongs to these categories: Party Game, Bluffing, and Trivia. Its main mechanics are Bids As Wagers. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The catalogue lists Arrogance as a base game. It can be played on its own with the components in the box and does not require any other title. Expansions, if any exist, add new content or rules on top of it and are listed separately in the catalogue with a link back to this base game.
