About the game
In Privacy Quickie, each player receives several YES and NO answer cards, and the question cards are placed number-side-up in the middle of the table. At the beginning of the round, the start player takes the topmost question card from the draw deck and reads the question whose number corresponds to the number on top of the deck. For example: "I have taken a test drive before I was even allowed to drive!" Each player answers honestly, but secretly, by placing a YES or NO answer card face down in the middle of the table. Each player must now guess how many players have answered YES. Jot each player's guess on the scoresheet in the proper column. Shuffle the answer cards briefly, then reveal them. Anyone who guessed exactly right gets three points; anyone who was off by one gets one point. Record the points on the scoresheet in each player's left column. The game ends after 15 rounds, and whoever was best able to assess their fellow players, and thus earn the most points, wins. Privacy Quickie includes three hundred questions and can be played as a standalone game or used as an expansion for Privacy, Privacy 2, or Privacy: Scharf wie Chili.
Questions and answers
Privacy Quickie supports 5–10 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Privacy Quickie is 35 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Privacy Quickie for ages 16 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.
Privacy Quickie 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.
